Abstract
Systems and methods for generating a graphical display region including a synchronized display of alert data and impact data indicative of conditions of a computing infrastructure are herein disclosed as comprising, in an implementation, identifying alerts, each alert having a timestamp indicative of a first time at which it was identified, performing an impact calculation to generate the impact data based on alerts valid as of a second time proximate to an impact calculation start time, and generating a graphical display region including impact data valid as of a display time and alert data indicative of the alerts valid as of the second time.
Claims20
A system for generating a graphical display region indicative of a condition of a computing infrastructure, the system comprising:
- a server comprising a processor and a memory, wherein the memory includes code executable by the processor to execute:
- a configuration management database comprising nodes representative of at least one of an infrastructure resource or an applicative resource in the computing infrastructure;
- a data structure configured to store states of validity for nodes of the configuration management database;
- and
- a system management module configured to generate the graphical display region by executing instructions to:
- identify alerts relating to one or more of the nodes, each alert having a timestamp indicative of a first time at which it was identified;
- perform an impact calculation to generate impact data for each alert that is related to a valid node, wherein the impact calculation determines an impact of the alert on the computing infrastructure;
- and
- generate the graphical display region to display the impact data and alert data indicative of the alerts for each valid node.

A system, comprising:
- a memory;
- and
- a processor configured to execute instructions stored in the memory to:
- identify alerts relating to one or more nodes, each alert having a timestamp indicative of a first time at which it was identified;
- perform an impact calculation to generate impact data for each alert that is related to a valid node, wherein the impact calculation determines an impact of the alert on a computing infrastructure;
- and
- generate a graphical display region to display the impact data and alert data indicative of the alerts for each valid node.
