Description
This dissertation presents a new approach to managing failures and evolution in large, complex distributed systems using runtime paths. We use the paths that requests follow as they move through the system as our core abstraction, and our approach focuses on component interactions rather than the details of the components themselves. Paths record component performance and interactions, are user-and request-centric, and occur in sufficient volume to enable statistical analysis, all in a way that is easily reusable across applications.
