System capacity heatmap

A computer system for collecting, processing, and visualizing data of distributed resources in a distributed environment, comprising:

• a monitoring system having at least a collecting server, a processing server, and a terminal device configured to communicate over a network, and wherein the collecting server is configured to communicate with one or more distributed resources over the network;
• the monitoring system having a processor and a memory storing instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the computer system to:
• receive, by the collecting server, data associated with a plurality of variables monitored over a period of time at the one or more distributed resources over the network, wherein the data associated with the plurality of variables is included in one or more batch files;
• determine, by the one or more distributed resources, whether an error occurred during transmission of the one or more batch files;
• generate, in the monitoring system, an error warning associated with the error;
• automatically retransmit, by the one or more distributed resources, the one or more batch files based on the error which has occurred;
• receive, by the collecting server, the one or more retransmitted batch files;
• store, by the collecting server, the data associated with the plurality of variables;
• calculate, by the processing server, metric values based on the stored data, wherein the metric values correspond to a plurality of time intervals during the period of time;
• and
• generate, by the processing server, a graphical representation of the metric values corresponding to the time intervals for each distributed resource, wherein the generating comprises:
• determining, based on the metric values, visual indicators to represent each of the metric values at the time intervals for each distributed resource, wherein each of the visual indicators corresponds with one of a plurality of threshold values, and
• mapping the visual indicators to a set of cells along a time axis within a window of the graphical representation;
• displaying the graphical representation on a terminal device, wherein the graphical representation is a heatmap and wherein the graphical representation includes interactive elements to selectively display a desired metric;
• rendering and displaying, on the graphical representation, the metric values corresponding to each of the visual indicators on the terminal device, wherein the metric values are displayed on a portion of the graphical representation corresponding to each metric value respectively.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause a computer system to collect, process, and visualize data of distributed resources in a distributed environment by a monitoring system, the monitoring system comprising at least a collecting server, a processing server, and a terminal device configured to communicate over a network, and wherein the collecting server is configured to communicate with one or more distributed resources over the network, by performing the steps of:

• receiving, by the collecting server, data associated with a plurality of variables monitored over a period of time at the one or more distributed resources over the network, wherein the data associated with the plurality of variables is included in one or more batch files;
• determining, by the one or more distributed resources, whether an error occurred during transmission of the one or more batch files;
• generating, in the monitoring system, an error warning associated with the error;
• automatically retransmitting, by the one or more distributed resources, the one or more batch files based on whether an error has occurred;
• receiving, by the collecting server, the one or more retransmitted batch files;
• storing, by the collecting server, the data associated with the plurality of variables;
• calculating, by the processing server, metric values based on the stored data, wherein the metric values correspond to a plurality of time intervals during the period of time;
• and
• generating, by the processing server, a graphical representation of the metric values corresponding to the time intervals for each distributed resource, wherein the generating comprises:
• determining, based on the metric values, visual indicators to represent each of the metric values at the time intervals for each distributed resource, wherein each of the visual indicators corresponds with one of a plurality of threshold values, and
• mapping the visual indicators to a set of cells along a time axis within a window of the graphical representation;
• displaying the graphical representation on a terminal device, wherein the graphical representation is a heatmap and wherein the graphical representation includes interactive elements to selectively display a desired metric;
• rendering and displaying, on the graphical representation, the metric values corresponding to each of the visual indicators on the terminal device, wherein the metric values are displayed on a portion of the graphical representation corresponding to each metric value respectively.
