1. Service Topology

Displays the services defined by the user in Business Definition in a waterfall topology format.

01-Service Topology

• ① Business Switch Dropdown: Quickly switch between businesses, defaults to the first starred business
• ② Service Management: Click the button to enter the business details page
• ③ Modify Metrics: Supports showing/hiding metrics and setting the primary metric
• ④ Save: Supports saving the time range, service topology position, and configuration of the service topology
• ⑤ Settings: Supports functions such as Edit, View API, Add to Dashboard, and Reset
  • Reset: The service topology will be restored to its initial layout
• ⑥ Service Group: Consists of a name row + box. For example, in the figure, Client, gcp-microservices-demo, DNS, and Redis are all independent service groups
• ⑦ Path: Represents a path with actual data from client to server. Hover to view the TIP, click to view path details in the right sliding panel, see later sections for details
• ⑧ Service: Each block in the topology represents a service, consisting of a name row + metrics. Hover to view the TIP, click to view service details in the right sliding panel, see later sections for details
  • Name Row: ICON represents the service type
  • Metrics: Displays metrics according to the priority of Observation Points (s-xx > local > rest > app). When a metric exceeds the threshold, the name row and corresponding metric will be highlighted in red
• ⑨ Operation Set: Supports layout, connection, zoom, and other operations on the topology
  • Layout: Enter manual layout mode, supports dragging services. Click the Save button again to exit and save the layout position
  • Edit: Enter path editing mode, supports adding or deleting paths. Click the Edit button again to exit path editing mode
    • Add Path: Supports adding connections between services/service groups of automatic grouping type, converting the connection into a path
    • Delete Path: Click the close button on the path to delete the corresponding path
  • Zoom In/Out: Zoom in or out of the topology
  • Mouse Wheel Zoom: When disabled, the topology size can only be controlled via the Zoom In/Out buttons

1.1 Right Sliding Panel

Clicking on a service or path will open the right sliding panel to view its detailed information. The right sliding panel consists of the upper Call Topology and the lower TABs.

1.1.1 Call Topology

View the client and server of the selected service through the Call Topology, or view the selected path.

02-Call Topology

• ① Switch Grouping: View the call topology by *, auto_service, auto_instance, and Custom Auto Grouping Tags
• ② Name: The name of the currently clicked service or path, corresponding to the object viewed in the lower TAB
• ③ Node: Refer to Traffic Topology for details
• ④ Path: Refer to Traffic Topology for details

Refer to Application - Right Sliding Panel - Knowledge Graph for details

1.1.3 Application Performance

Use Application Performance to analyze whether there are application-layer anomalies in the selected service or path.

04-Application Performance

The TAB consists of three charts for throughput, latency, and exceptions, along with an endpoint list below. Click a row in the endpoint list to enter the next-level right sliding panel.

04-1-Application Performance

04-2-Application Performance

The next-level right sliding panel allows viewing the RED metrics and log details of a specific endpoint. If anomalies exist, Exception Analysis can be viewed.

1.1.4 Network Performance

Use Network Performance to analyze whether there are application-layer anomalies in the selected service or path.

05-Network Performance

The TAB consists of four charts for throughput, latency, exceptions, and performance, along with a service port list below. Click a row in the list to enter the next-level right sliding panel.

• Service: View data for the service as a client or as a server separately
• Path: Click each observation point in Topology Analysis to view data for each observation point separately

05-1-Network Performance

05-2-Network Performance

The next-level right sliding panel allows viewing the RED metrics and log details of a specific service port. If anomalies exist, Exception Analysis can be viewed.

1.1.5 Infrastructure

Use Infrastructure to analyze CPU, memory, status, and other data of the infrastructure instances corresponding to the service.

06-Infrastructure

① Switch Service: Switch the service whose infrastructure you want to view. The options are the two services at both ends of the clicked path or the clicked service itself.

1.1.6 Events

View resource change events for a service or path.
