Integrated environment monitor for distributed resources

A method, comprising:

• processing schemas associated with distributed resources of an information technology (IT) system or data center for an enterprise and grouping events of event types into aggregated event types of a data model, wherein grouping further includes processing a corresponding schema for each distributed resource to group corresponding event types into the aggregated event types of the data model;
• maintaining, within a current instance of the data model, metric data values obtained from event data associated with the events, wherein the data model is a data structure representing a normalized version of the event types for distributed resources of the IT system or data center;
• weighting, within the current instance of the data model, the corresponding metric data values associated with each aggregated event type, wherein weighting further includes summing the corresponding metric data values for each aggregated event type and multiplying a corresponding summed metric data value by a predefined weight to produce a corresponding weighted aggregated metric data value for a corresponding aggregated event type;
• calculating, within the current instance of the data model, a health value based on the weighting, wherein the health value is a single value representing the overall health of the distributed resources of the IT system or the data center;
• and
• rendering the current instance of the data model within a single view of an interface to a user of the enterprise to assess a current state of operations and the distributed resources for the enterprise via the health value.

A system comprising:

• a service comprising at least one processor and a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium;
• the non-transitory computer-readable storage medium comprising executable instructions;
• the executable instructions when provided to or obtained by the at least one processor from the non-transitory computer-readable storage medium cause the at least one processor to perform operations, comprising:
• receiving metrics for distributed resources of an information technology (IT) system or a data center of an enterprise;
• grouping metric types for the metrics into aggregated metric types of a data model, wherein the data model is a data structure representing a normalized version of the metric types for distributed resources of the IT system or data center, wherein grouping further includes processing a corresponding schema for each distributed resource to group corresponding metric types into the aggregated metric types of the data model;
• weighting metric data values for each aggregated metric type producing a weighted aggregated metric data value for each aggregated metric type, wherein weighting further includes summing corresponding metric data values for each aggregated metric type and multiplying a corresponding summed metric data value by a predefined weight to produce a corresponding weighted aggregated metric data value for a corresponding aggregated metric type;
• using the weighted aggregated metric data values to calculate an overall health value for the resources of the enterprise, wherein the overall health value is a single value representing the overall health of the distributed resources of the IT system or the data center;
• and
• rendering the overall health value and select aggregations of the metric data value for each aggregated metric type or combinations of the aggregated metric types within a single view of an interface to a user of the enterprise.
