USTEP: Structuration des logs en flux gr{\^a}ce {\`a} un arbre de recherche {\'e}volutif

Arthur Vervaet, Raja Chiky, Mar Callau-Zori

Logs record valuable system information at runtime. They are widely used by data-driven approaches for development and monitoring purposes. Parsing log messages to structure their format is a classic preliminary step for log-mining tasks. As they appear upstream, parsing operations can become a processing time bottleneck for downstream applications. The quality of parsing also has a direct influence on their efficiency. Here, we propose USTEP, an online log parsing method based on an evolving tree structure. Evaluation results on a wide panel of datasets coming from different real-world systems demonstrate USTEP superiority in terms of both effectiveness and robustness when compared to other online methods.
