Diagnosing misconfiguration across modern software stacks is increasingly difficult. These
stacks comprise multiple micro-services which are deployed across a combination of …

Studies and many incidents in the headlines suggest misconfigurations remain a major
cause of unavailability in large systems despite the large amount of work put into detecting …

Large-scale cloud services deploy hundreds of configuration changes to production systems
daily. At such velocity, configuration changes have inevitably become prevalent causes of …

Similar to software bugs, configuration errors are also one of the major causes of today's
system failures. Many configuration issues manifest themselves in ways similar to software …

Many techniques were proposed for detecting software misconfigurations in cloud systems
and for diagnosing unintended behavior caused by such misconfigurations. Detection and …

As software systems become more complex and configurable, failures due to
misconfigurations are becoming a critical problem. Such failures often have serious …

A large percentage of real-world software configuration issues, such as misconfigurations,
involve multiple interdependent configuration parameters. However, existing techniques and …

Modern cloud applications are designed in a highly configurable way to ensure increased
reusability and portability. With the growing complexity of these applications, configuration …

Large-scale data centers and cloud computing have turned system configuration into a
challenging problem. Several widely-publicized outages have been blamed not on software …

The behavior of large systems is guided by their configurations: users set parameters in the
configuration file to dictate which corresponding part of the system code is executed …
