Anomaly detection for microservices

System, method, and software for detecting anomalies in data generated by microservices. In one embodiment, an anomaly detector collects performance metrics for a microservice deployed in a data center for an application. The anomaly detector transforms the performance metrics into a time-series structured dataset for the microservice, and feeds the structured dataset to a machine learning system to determine whether an anomaly exists in the structured dataset based on an anomaly detection model. The anomaly detector performs an anomaly classification with the machine learning system based on an anomaly classification model and the structured dataset when an anomaly is detected in the structured dataset, and performs an action based on the anomaly classification.
