LOG RECORD ANALYSIS BASED ON REVERSE ENGINEERING OF LOG RECORD FORMATS

摘要

Log record analysis based on reverse engineering of log record formats is disclosed. A computing device receives log record template data associated with a log record template comprising a plurality of field identifiers for a log record. The log record template data is analyzed to identify the plurality of field identifiers. Based on the log record template data and the plurality of field identifiers, a log record analysis function is automatically generated that is configured to receive a log record that was generated based on the log record template, extract a plurality of log data items from the log record, each log data item corresponding to one of the plurality of field identifiers, and output information that identifies the plurality of field identifiers and the plurality of log data items.
