Crash-dump Auto Analysis

While I love to play CSI looking at crash dumps, it can be overwhelming to look at 100 of them a day. To scale at this level, I developed an auto-analysis utility comprised of a library, microservice, and a UI application integrated with WinDbg. It reduced our analysis time from hours to less than 20 minutes.

The tool extracted a signature from each failure, normalized it, and ran k-means clustering on the results. The tool was developed entirely in C#.
