SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR IDENTIFYING ANOMALIES IN DATA LOGS USING CONTEXT-BASED ANALYSIS

Methods and systems for managing data processing systems based on indications of anomalous behaviors in logs are disclosed. A data processing system may include and depend on the operation of hardware and/or software components. To manage the operation of the data processing system, a data processing system manager may obtain logs for components of the data processing system that reflect the historical and/or current operation of these components. The logs may be used to identify the operational state of the data processing system, improving the context of the log information. Based on the identified state, inference models may be implemented to predict future infrastructure issues by detecting anomalous behaviors of the data processing system (e.g., behaviors that are unusual for the given state) recorded in the logs. Based on the predictions, the data processing system manager may take action to reduce the likelihood of the data processing system becoming impaired.
