LogMagnet
Keywords: Data mining - Data stream
Functional Description: LogMagnet is a software for analyzing streaming data, and in particular log data. Log data usually arrive in the form of lines containing activities of human or machines. In the case of human activities, it may be the behavior on a Web site or the usage of an application. In the case of machines, such log may contain the activities of software and hardware components (say, for each node of a computing cluster, the calls to system functions or some hardware alerts). Analyzing such data is often difficult and crucial in the meanwhile. LogMagnet allows to summarize this data, and to provide a first analysis as a clustering. This summary may also be exploited as easily as the original data.
