Data-agnostic adjustment of hard thresholds based on user feedback

摘要

This disclosure is directed to data-agnostic computational methods and systems for adjusting hard thresholds based on user feedback. Hard thresholds are used to monitor time-series data generated by a data-generating entity. The time-series data may be metric data that represents usage of the data-generating entity over time. The data is compared with a hard threshold associated with usage of the resource or process and when the data violates the threshold, an alert is typically generated and presented to a user. Methods and systems collect user feedback after a number of alerts to determine the quality and significance of the alerts. Based on the user feedback, methods and systems automatically adjust the hard thresholds to better represent how the user perceives the alerts.
