Decreasing log data of multi-tier services for effective request tracing

preprint2010arXivOpen access

Abstract

Previous work shows request tracing systems help understand and debug the performance problems of multi-tier services. However, for large-scale data centers, more than hundreds of thousands of service instances provide online service at the same time. Previous work such as white-box or black box tracing systems will produce large amount of log data, which would be correlated into large quantities of causal paths for performance debugging. In this paper, we propose an innovative algorithm to eliminate valueless logs of multitiers services. Our experiment shows our method filters 84% valueless causal paths and is promising to be used in large-scale data centers.
