GRAPHICAL USER INTERFACES FOR EXPLORING AND INTERACTING WITH DISTRIBUTED SOFTWARE APPLICATIONS

摘要

A graphical user interface described herein can allow a user to easily explore and interact with a complex software application in a distributed computing environment. In one example, a system can generate a graphical user interface (GUI) for display on a display device. The GUI can depict a topological view of a group of software components of a distributed software application in a distributed computing environment. The topological view can include a group of nodes representing the group of software components. Each node in the group of nodes can represent a software component and have a status indicator for at least one container pod including the software component. The topological view can also include at least one link between the group of nodes, where the at least one link represents at least one relationship among the group of software components.
