Patent attributes
The subject technology provides a drillable time-series heat map, which combines information of separate network element (e.g., switch, router, server or storage) and relates them together through impact zones to correlate network wide events and the potential impact on the other units in the network. The subject technology also brings together the network and its components, the distributed application(s) and a heat map controller to proactively communicate with one another to disseminate information such as failures, timeouts, new jobs, etc. For an individual job (e.g., for a distributed application), the subject technology may monitor consumption of resources during different phases of execution to provide individual job profile data that could be presented as a drillable heat map. The heat map, in this regard, nay include resource utilization heat metrics of resources such as CPU, Input/Output (I/O), memory, etc., in the heat map or graphs and presented along with network activity.
