D-Bot: Database Diagnosis System using Large Language Models
Summary: D-Bot: LLM-driven DB diagnosis that ingests docs, auto-prompts and retrieves tools, and uses tree-search plus collaboration to pinpoint root causes. Tested on 539 anomalies from six apps; finds unseen root causes in minutes and beats heuristics and GPT-4.
