Multi-perspective application components dependencies

One or more machine-readable storage media having program code stored therein, the program code comprising instructions to:

• determine dependencies among a plurality of components for an application based, at least in part, on interactions among the plurality of components observed from at least one execution of the application;
• in response to selection of an attribute from a plurality of attributes associated with the plurality of components, determine components of the plurality of components that have values in common for the selected attribute;
• and
• graphically organize the plurality of components into graphical containers based, at least in part, on the determination of components with values in common for the selected attribute.

An apparatus comprising:

• a processor;
• and
• a machine-readable medium having program code executable by the processor to cause the apparatus to:
• create a dependency graph that indicates dependencies among a plurality of components of an application based, at least in part, on interactions among the plurality of components determined from at least one execution of the application;
• in response to selection of a first attribute of a plurality of attributes, differentiate the plurality of components into a first plurality of sets of the plurality of components based, at least in part, on having values in common for the first attribute;
• determine dependencies among the first plurality of sets of components based, at least in part, on the dependency graph;
• and
• display a first attribute based perspective of the application, wherein the first attribute based perspective comprises a graphical container for each of the first plurality of sets of components and graphical connections between the graphical containers corresponding to the dependencies among the first plurality of sets of components.
