Multi-Tenant Observability & RCA Platform

AI Platform Engineer Enterprise ITOps & SRE teams across 8+ HPE products Data isolation & anomaly detection

A multi-tenant platform that turns noisy, high-volume logs into automated anomaly detection and AI root-cause analysis.

Multi-tenant FastAPI + React/TypeScript platform serving 8+ enterprise products, orchestrating log ingestion, ML anomaly detection, semantic retrieval and an agentic RCA pipeline, hardened with row-level security, OIDC SSO, secrets management and automated PII anonymization.

Engineering Brief

My contribution
The multi-tenant API, anomaly-detection lifecycle, agentic RCA pipeline, and security and deployment integration.
Engineering difficulty
Keep tenant boundaries and sensitive data intact while combining ingestion, model activation, retrieval and LLM reasoning.
Outcome
An internal observability platform with self-serve model workflows, anomaly detection, and automated RCA.
Engineering questions

The Problem

Incident triage across multi-tenant log streams was manual and slow, with root-cause analysis bottlenecked on tribal knowledge and no safe way to handle sensitive data.

System Architecture

Enter system environment

Architecture design

Illustrative paths, not live telemetry.

Logs stream in, ML flags anomalies, and an LLM agent reasons out the root cause, all behind RLS, SSO and PII anonymization.

Live Demo

Incident flow and evidence

Synthetic demonstration, not employer telemetry or real model execution. Each step maps a local fixture to the documented architecture; no remediation is executed.

  1. Identify the signal

    A service and severity give triage an initial scope. The documented API coordinates ingestion; database policies, not this parser, enforce tenant isolation.

    Design decision
  2. Score the fixture

    Hexus describes unsupervised detection when labelled incidents are scarce, with supervised scoring added as labels accumulate.

    Design decision
  3. Inspect redaction

    The ingestion-redaction decision removes sensitive fields before persistence or model access, rather than relying on redaction at read time.

    Design decision
  4. Inspect supporting signals

    Context should remain inside tenant boundaries. The architecture documents API-to-agent and agent-to-database relationships, with RLS as a separate control.

    Design decision
  5. Explain the rule match

    The documented LangGraph decision uses typed tools, timeouts and schema validation around model calls. The local fixture demonstrates a narrower boundary: known rule or human triage.

    Design decision
  6. Review the next step

    An unmatched rule must remain unknown. The demo cannot confirm a root cause, approve a change, or act on infrastructure.

    Design decision
This local demo requires JavaScript. The architecture and case study remain available above.

What I Engineered

  • Architected a multi-tenant FastAPI + React/TypeScript platform orchestrating ingestion, anomaly detection, semantic retrieval and root-cause analysis for 8+ enterprise products.
  • Built an agentic RCA pipeline on LangGraph + Azure OpenAI with prompt-driven reasoning that minimises hallucinated incident statements.
  • Engineered the full ML lifecycle: Isolation Forest / LOF unsupervised detection plus supervised scoring, with APIs for training, vectorization and model activation.
  • Hardened persistence with PostgreSQL Row-Level Security and SQLAlchemy ORM across batch and streaming log collection.
  • Shipped a federated micro-frontend (Vite module federation + Grommet) for model management and live training observability.
  • Operationalised with Docker/Kubernetes, Keycloak OIDC SSO, HashiCorp Vault secrets, and Presidio + spaCy PII anonymization.

Impact & Scale

  • Automated RCA + anomaly detection across multi-tenant log streams
  • Tenant isolation designed around database Row-Level Security, with policy and privileged-access testing still required
  • Automated PII detection and anonymization at ingestion; detection coverage still requires validation

Engineering Decisions

  1. 01

    Enforced tenant isolation in PostgreSQL with Row-Level Security, not in the API layer.

    Database policies reduce reliance on every API remembering a tenant filter, at the cost of query and operational flexibility. Row-Level Security still needs correct role configuration, policy tests and controls for privileged access; it does not replace a full threat model or security testing.

  2. 02

    Led with unsupervised anomaly detection (Isolation Forest / LOF) before supervised scoring.

    Labelled incident data is scarce and biased early on. Unsupervised detection delivers day-one value with no training set; supervised scoring folds in later as labels accumulate, avoiding a cold start where nothing is flagged until data exists.

  3. 03

    Ran RCA as a guarded LangGraph state machine rather than a free-form prompt chain.

    Typed tools, timeouts and schema validation around every model call keep reasoning auditable and isolate failures to a single node. That is what minimises hallucinated incident statements: the difference between a demo and something an SRE trusts at 3am.

  4. 04

    Anonymised PII at ingestion with Presidio + spaCy, not on read.

    Stripping sensitive data before it lands in storage or reaches the LLM is a stricter boundary than redacting at query time. The reprocessing overhead is far cheaper than the blast radius of a leak.

  • HPE OpsNexus

    Both place controls around model-assisted reasoning: OpsNexus proposes permission-aware graph and vector retrieval, while Hexus documents guarded RCA and ingestion-time redaction.

    Research design; prospective targets, not measured outcomes.

  • GTMScale

    Both expose multi-tenant applications through APIs, with distinct documented trade-offs: Hexus centralizes tenant isolation in database policies; GTMScale separates service releases and tunes data access.
