    Abstract: This disclosure describes techniques for analyzing information generated as a result of monitoring resources within computing environments. In one example, this disclosure describes a method that includes observing a plurality of alerts generated in response to monitoring resources associated with a plurality of connected elements within a network; determining a plurality of occurrence counts; determining a plurality of concurrent occurrence counts, wherein each of the plurality of concurrent occurrence counts represents a count of concurrent occurrences of two or more of the alerts in the set of historical alerts; and identifying one or more root cause alerts, wherein the one or more root cause alerts are determined based on the plurality of occurrence counts and the plurality of the concurrent occurrence counts, and wherein the one or more root cause alerts are a subset of the plurality of alerts.

    Abstract: The patent or application file contains at least one drawing executed in color. Copies of this patent or patent application publication with color drawing(s) will be provided by the office upon request and payment of the necessary fee.
    FIG. 1 is a first image in a sequence of a display screen with animated graphical user interface;
    FIG. 2 is a second image thereof; and,
    FIG. 3 is a third image thereof.
    The outermost dashed broken lines in the figures illustrate a display device comprising a display screen or a portion thereof, and form no part of the claimed design. The additional dashed broken lines within the outermost dashed broken lines represent elements or aspects of the graphical user interface that form no part of the claimed design.
    The appearance of the animated graphical user interface sequentially transitions between the images shown in FIGS. 1-3. The process or period in which one image transitions to another image forms no part of the claimed design.

    Abstract: A computing system includes a computing device configured to execute a plurality of virtual machines, each virtual machine of the plurality of virtual machines configured to provide control plane functionality for at least a different respective subset of forwarding units of a network device, the computing device distinct from the network devices. The computing system also includes a policy agent configured to execute on the computing device. The agent is configured to determine that a particular virtual machine of the plurality of virtual machines provides control plane functionality for one or more forwarding units of the network device; determine control plane usage metrics for resources of the particular virtual machine; and output, to a policy controller, data associated with the control plane usage metrics and data associating the particular virtual machine with the one or more forwarding units for which the particular virtual machine provides control plane functionality.

    Abstract: This disclosure describes techniques for monitoring, scheduling, and performance management for virtualization infrastructures within networks. In one example, a computing system includes a plurality of different cloud-based compute clusters (e.g., different cloud projects), each comprising a set of compute nodes. Policy agents execute on the compute nodes to monitor performance and usage metrics relating to resources of the compute nodes. Policy controllers within each cluster deploy policies to the policy agents and evaluate performance and usage metrics from the policy agents by application of one or more rulesets for infrastructure elements of the compute cluster. Each of the policy controllers outputs data to a multi-cluster dashboard software system indicative of a current health status for the infrastructure elements based on the evaluation of the performance and usage metrics for the cluster. The multi-cluster dashboard software system data outputs, as single user interface screen, the current health status for each of the cloud-based compute clusters.

    Abstract: A variety of different graphical user interfaces are generated that when displayed provide a visual and interactive representation of one or more performance metrics associated with the operation of a computer network. The graphical user interfaces may be used to monitor the underlay computer network for a virtualization infrastructure, as one example. Aspects include grouping the servers of a computer network into a plurality of aggregates, each aggregate comprising one or more servers. A set of probes are configured that are issued by an agent of a server in one aggregate and sent through the computer network to one or more agents in the server(s) of a different aggregate. Responses and other measurements taken based on the issuance of the probes is gathered and analyzed to generate metrics that are then used to generate, at least in part, the information provided in the graphical user interfaces.

    Abstract: Aspects of this disclosure relate to monitoring use of shared resources to identify processes using such shared resources in a manner that may be affecting the performance of other processes. In one example, a method comprises: monitoring, by a computing device, usage metrics for a shared cache that is shared by one or more processors of the computing device; mapping the usage metrics to each of a plurality of virtual computing environments executing on the one or more processors, wherein the plurality of virtual computing environments includes a first virtual computing environment and a second virtual computing environment; determining, based on the mapped usage metrics, that the first virtual computing environment is using the shared cache in a manner that adversely affects the performance of the second virtual computing environment; and restricting, by the computing device, access to the shared cache by the first virtual computing environment.
