Abstract

Sequences of hierarchical records are aggregated and summarized. A capture log that includes a plurality of operations of a workload is received. A first data structure that models transaction types as sequences of nodes is created. The nodes identify operations in the workload. A present operation and a transaction identifier are read from the capture log. The transaction identifier is dissociated from a first node that identifies a prior operation. The transaction identifier is associated with a second node that identifies the present operation. In a second data structure that associates nodes with transaction identifiers, the first node is dissociated from the transaction identifier and the second node is associated with the transaction identifier. A summary of the workload is generated based, at least in part, on the first and second data structures. The summary includes signatures of transaction types and counts of instances of the transaction types.
