Methods and systems for anomaly detection in relational databases. The methods and systems perform operations comprising: accessing a data object including a data set that has been collected over a given time interval; selecting a reference data point from the data set; computing an angle representing a data growth rate of the data set at least within the given time interval relative to the reference data point; determining that the angle representing the data growth rate of the data set within the given time interval exceeds a specified threshold; and in response to determining that the angle representing the data growth rate of the data set within the given time interval exceeds the specified threshold, triggering an anomaly detection operation.
