Debugging Microservices with AI + Neo4j: Find the Root Cause Faster - Ganesh Das

This talk examines the challenges of debugging issues in microservice-based systems, particularly how failures can cascade across services due to complex dependencies. The speaker introduces a graph-based approach utilizing Neo4j, which, in combination with AI-driven reasoning, provides a more effective means of understanding system behavior. The session emphasizes that relying solely on raw logs is often inadequate for diagnosing distributed failures and demonstrates how operational signals can be modeled as connected data to reveal interactions and dependencies. By leveraging graph queries and AI reasoning, teams can achieve faster and more explainable root cause analysis within microservice environments.
