Root cause localization
Potential title: Towards a comparative analysis and evaluation framework for root cause localization in large-scale microservice systems
Summary: Over the last few years, microservices-based systems gain a lot of popularity. This is due to many of its inherent advantages such as loosely-coupled architecture, speedy delivery, flexibility, ease of scalability. However, for a large-scale system that consist of many inter-dependent microservices, it becomes extremely difficult to analyse the behaviour and troubleshoot to identify the source of problems – A process called root cause localization. This project is aimed to develop a research-oriented framework (tool) for the comparative analysis of existing research works for the root cause localization problem.
