Abstract
Historical telemetry data can be used to generate predictions for various classes of data at various aggregates of a system that implements an online service. An anomaly detection process can then be utilized to detect anomalies for a class of data at a selected aggregate. An example anomaly detection process includes receiving telemetry data originating from a plurality of client devices, selecting a class of data from the telemetry data, converting the class of data to a set of metrics, aggregating the set of metrics according to a component of interest to obtain values of aggregated metrics over time for the component of interest, determining a prediction error by comparing the values of the aggregated metrics to a prediction, detecting an anomaly based at least in part on the prediction error, and transmitting an alert message of the anomaly to a receiving entity.
