Starting with Windows Vista, the Windows event logs appear to be inundated with thousands of messages, some pure clutter, informing the user about every little detail an application does. Amongst these useless messages, an error may be easily missed even by a watchful eye. Even when the errors are noticed, in many cases they are rather cryptic, undocumented, and very often mislead about the actual source of the problem. In their effort to provide as much information as possible about how the application is performing, Microsoft and other leading developers have rendered the event logs almost useless. Gone are the XP days, when quite often, a single event clarified the issue.
In the same time, with the hardware becoming a commodity, more and more servers are thrown at the (already) overworked administrators, with the expectation to be monitored rigorously. Various monitoring solutions are available on the market, some quite complex, but many are trying to do too much or are reporting the wrong things. The cost of such solution may also become an issue even for smaller companies and add yet another burden to the administrators' shoulders.
We are happy to present Evvy, the EvLog Artificial Intelligence module! Once enabled, Evvy will start to collect statistics about the events recorded on your computer. In other words, Evvy learns about what the computer is analyzing and uses that to make some educated guesses.
Evvy is able to detect when "something happened", when things are not normal, and when improvements are necessary to make the reporting information more relevant. As it is the case with any intelligent entity, Evvy will get smarter as EvLog evolves and more analysis are performed. In time, Evvy will be able to detect patterns in the logs and do some of the thinking for the overworked system admins of the world!
