Bottleneck Detection via Correlation Model Correction
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing operation management systems require operating the system at the migration-destination environment to discern bottlenecks, which is impractical and inefficient.
Innovation Solution
An operation management apparatus that generates a prediction model by correcting a correlation model using benchmark performances from both the migration-source and migration-destination systems, allowing bottleneck detection without operating the migration-destination system.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If the system is operated in the migration-destination environment to discern bottlenecks, then the bottleneck detection accuracy is improved, but the operation cost and complexity increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent creates a prediction model that copies the correlation relationships from the migration-source environment to predict bottlenecks in the migration-destination environment. Instead of directly operating the migration-destination system, the patent uses benchmark performance data from both environments to generate a predicted correlation model that replicates the behavior patterns of the original system, enabling bottleneck identification without actual operation of the target system.
2Measurement precision
If the system is operated in the migration-destination environment to discern bottlenecks, then the bottleneck detection accuracy is improved, but the time consumption increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent performs preliminary actions by collecting benchmark performance data from both migration-source and migration-destination environments before migration occurs. The prediction model is built in advance using this pre-collected data, allowing bottleneck prediction to be performed without requiring actual operation of the migration-destination system during the migration process itself.
3Measurement precision
If benchmark performances from both migration-source and migration-destination systems are used to correct the correlation model, then the prediction accuracy is improved, but the data collection complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent employs a universal benchmarking approach where the same benchmark program is executed on both migration-source and migration-destination systems to collect performance data. This multi-functional benchmarking process serves multiple purposes: characterizing the source system, characterizing the destination system, and providing the data foundation for correlation model correction, thereby reducing overall data collection complexity.

AI summary
An operation management apparatus for discerning a bottleneck of a system in an execution environment of a migration-destination without operating the system in the execution environment of the migration-destination is provided. The operation management apparatus (100) includes a correlation model storage unit (112) and a prediction model generation unit (105). The correlation model storage unit (112) stores a correlation model (260) indicating a correlation for each pair of one or more metrics in a state of executing a predetermined program processing in a first processing system. The prediction model generation unit (105) generates, by correcting the correlation model (260) of the first processing system using benchmark performances acquired in a state of executing a predetermined benchmark processing in the first processing system and a second processing system, a prediction model (370) of a correlation model in a state of executing the predetermined program processing in the second processing system.
