US Patent 9819729 Application monitoring for cloud-based architectures

An example system may include one or more collectors, an analyzer, and a presentation module. The one or more collectors receive a plurality of data streams that include operational data for a plurality of application nodes. The plurality of data streams are captured and provided by a plurality of meters deployed on at least one cloud computing platform to respectively meter the plurality application nodes. The analyzer processes the plurality of data streams to generate real-time performance data for an application associated with the plurality of application nodes. The presentation module streams the real-time performance data to at least one stakeholder of the application for display via a dashboard. The real-time performance data includes one or more performance metrics describing the performance of plurality of the application nodes of the application.
