Enabling Intelligent Insights

With intelligent insights, AOM continuously monitors your applications and resources, detects problems based on historical data and problem characteristics, and provides root cause analysis and suggestions.

Function Introduction

  • Checking Event Inspection Data on AOM: Provides application monitoring based on APM and monitors service quality based on key metrics such as the average RT and error rate of application services and top N APIs (ranked by traffic) for automatic exception detection.
  • Checking Root Cause Analysis Results on AOM: Uses APM tracing to locate root causes. You can analyze problems globally and diagnose and locate root causes of faults based on the traces and metrics of application services and top N APIs (ranked by traffic).
  • Checking the Fault Propagation Chain on AOM: Identifies the propagation chain of abnormal calls based on key metrics (such as the trace, average RT, and error rate) provided by APM, and displays key metric data of services and their associated services, helping you locate root causes more effectively.

Advantages

  • Extracts data characteristics in terms of periodicity, stability, and auto-correlation for automatic exception detection.
  • Monitors service quality based on key metrics such as the average RT and error rate of application services and top N APIs (ranked by traffic), and enables global analysis of problems.
  • Drills down traces to locate root causes.

Constraints

  • For intelligent insights, analysis is made based on the application data collected by APM. To use this function, enable APM and connect target applications to APM first.
  • This function is available only in AP-Singapore, CN South-Guangzhou, and CN North-Beijing4.
  • Before using intelligent insights, ensure that the aom_admin_trust agency has been granted the apm:apm2BusinessView:get, apm:apm2BusinessInstance:get, apm:apm2BusinessSpanSearch:get, apm:apm2BusinessMonitorItem:get, apm:apm2BusinessEnv:get, apm:apm2BusinessBusiness:list, and apm:apm2TraceEvents:get permissions.
