Agentic RCA for Internet-Scale Services Using Constrained Creativity
Quick summary
arXiv:2610.08622v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: System administrators of Internet-scale services need to resolve failure incidents to maintain reliability of such services. Ideally, we want a troubleshooting system to be: (1) expressive to known and unknown incidents with high accuracy; (2) cost efficient at scale; (3) explainable to provide actionable insights operators can act on; and (4) entail low effort from the operators. Unfortunately, most existing systems, including emerging LLM-assisted agentic workflows and structured frameworks for authoring diverse RCA algorithms fall short of a
