ABSTRACT:
Techniques for monitoring one or more transaction instances in a real-time network are provided. The techniques include obtaining one or more system log files, wherein one or more footprints left by one or more transaction instances are recorded in the one or more system log files, obtaining a transaction model, wherein the transaction model comprises one or more transaction steps and a footprint pattern corresponding with each transaction step, and using the one or more system log files and the transaction model to monitor the one or more transaction instances in a real-time network at least one of an individual level and one or more aggregate levels.
