Synchronized temporal and frequency-based visualizations of operational data

A computer-implemented method comprising:

• acquiring a plurality of samples of data associated with one or more computing operations, each of the plurality of samples associated with a respective computing operation, a time and a metric value;
• generating a first visualization of a first set of the plurality of samples, each sample of the first set associated with a time within a first time period, and the first visualization of a first visualization type and plotting a time against a metric value for each sample of the first set;
• generating a first histogram of the first set of the plurality of samples, the first histogram of a second visualization type and indicating, for each of a first plurality of categorizations of the metric value, a number of samples of the first set associated with the categorization;
• presenting the first visualization and the first histogram on a display device;
• identifying an instruction to change the first period to a second time period, the second time period being a subset of the first time period;
• and
• in response to the instruction:
• automatically generating a second visualization of a second set of the plurality of samples, each sample of the second set being a sample of the first set of the plurality of samples and associated with a time within the second time period, and the second visualization of the first visualization type and plotting a time against a metric value for each sample of the second set;
• automatically generating a second histogram of the second set of the plurality of samples, the second histogram of the second visualization type and indicating, for each of a second plurality of categorizations of the metric value, a number of samples of the second set associated with a categorization;
• and
• automatically displaying the second visualization and the second histogram on the display device.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing processor-executable code, the code executable by one or more processing units to cause a computing system to:

• generate a first visualization of a first set of a plurality of samples associated with a respective computing operation, each sample of the first set associated with a time within a first time period, and the first visualization of a first visualization type and indicating a time and a metric value for each sample of the first set;
• generate a second visualization of the first set of the plurality of samples, the second visualization of a second visualization type and indicating, for each of a first plurality of categorizations of a metric value, a number of samples of the first set associated with the categorization;
• present the first visualization and the second visualization on a display device;
• receive, at the first visualization, user input indicating user selection of a second time period, the second time period being a subset of the first time period;
• and
• in response to the user selection of the second time period:
• automatically generate a third visualization of a second set of the plurality of samples, each sample of the second set being a sample of the first set of the plurality of samples and associated with a time within the second time period, and the third visualization of the first visualization type and indicating a time and a metric value for each sample of the second set;
• automatically generate a fourth visualization of the second set of the plurality of samples, the fourth visualization of the second visualization type and indicating, for each of a second plurality of categorizations of the metric value, a number of samples of the second set associated with the categorization;
• and
• present the first visualization and the second visualization on the display device.
