== Introduction ==

Hadoop is a great computation platform for map reduce job, but trouble shooting 
faulty compute node in the cluster is not an easy task.    Chukwa Anomaly 
Detection System, is a system for detecting computer failure and misuse by 
monitoring system activity and classifying it as either normal or anomalous. 
The classification is based on heuristics, rules, and patterns, and will detect 
any type of misuse that falls out of normal system operation.

In order to determine what is failure, the system must be taught to recognize 
normal system activity. This can be accomplished in several ways, most often 
with artificial intelligence type techniques. Systems using neural networks 
have been used to great effect. Another method is to define what normal usage 
of the system comprises using a strict mathematical model, and flag any 
deviation from this as an system problem. This is known as strict anomaly 
detection.  For the prototyping phase, Chukwa will use strict mathematical 
model as the skeleton.

== Design ==

A new processing pipeline has been introduced to post demux processor.  This 
enables Chukwa to run ping/mr job based aggregation and anomaly detection 
framework.



== Implementation ==
