Network event processing and prioritization
First Claim
1. One or more computer-readable storage devices storing instructions which, when executed by one or more processing devices, cause the one or more processing devices to perform acts comprising:
- obtaining multiple events that are generated by network devices in a networking environment;
processing the multiple events to identify a subset of impactful events from the multiple events, the subset of impactful events having associated device-level or link-level impacts of traffic loss or latency inflation;
determining a device-level or link-level failure metric for individual impactful events in the identified subset of impactful events, the device-level or link-level failure metric being determined based on the traffic loss or latency inflation associated with the individual impactful events;
determining a redundancy-related failure metric for the individual impactful events, the redundancy-related failure metric being associated with individual network devices or links in the networking environment that are configured to perform redundant failovers; and
prioritizing the individual impactful events according to at least the device-level or link-level failure metric and the redundancy-related failure metric.

Abstract
The described implementations relate to processing of electronic data. One implementation is manifest as a system that can include an event analysis component and one or more processing devices configured to execute the event analysis component. The event analysis component can be configured to obtain multiple events that are generated by network devices in a networking environment. The event analysis component can also be configured to identify impactful events from the multiple events. The impactful events can have associated device-level or link-level impacts. The event analysis component can also be configured to determine one or more failure metrics for an individual impactful event. The one or more failure metrics can include at least a first redundancy-related failure metric associated with redundant failovers in the networking environment.
