A system for clustering events includes a first engine that receives message data from a managed infrastructure which includes managed infrastructure physical hardware and supports the flow and processing of information. A second engine determines common characteristics of events and produces clusters of events relating to the failure of errors in the managed infrastructure. Membership in a cluster indicates a common factor of the events that is a failure or an actionable problem in the physical hardware managed infrastructure directed to supporting the flow and processing of information. Events are produced that relate to the managed infrastructure while converting the events into words and subsets used to group the events that relate to failures or errors in the managed infrastructure, including the managed infrastructure physical hardware. The second engine or a third engines uses a source address for each event to assign a graph coordinate to each of an event and making a change to at least a portion of the managed infrastructure.
