ADAPTIVE SAMPLING TO BUILD ACCURATE APPLICATION THROUGHPUT MODELS

摘要

In one embodiment, a node in a network reports, to a supervisory service, histograms of application-specific throughput metrics measured from the network. The node receives, from the supervisory service, a merged histogram of application-specific throughput metrics. The supervisory service generated the merged histogram based on a plurality of histograms reported to the supervisory service by a plurality of nodes. The node performs, using the merged histogram, application throughput anomaly detection on traffic in the network. The node causes performance of a mitigation action in the network when an application throughput anomaly is detected. The node adjusts, based on a control command sent by the supervisory service, a histogram reporting strategy used by the node to report the histograms of application-specific throughput metrics to the supervisory service.
