Methods are provided in which a computing device obtains, from one or more disparate data sources, inventory data of a plurality of network resources in a plurality of domains of an enterprise network. The inventory data includes configuration information of the enterprise network. The method further includes the computing device selecting one or more contextual insights that apply to the inventory data of the enterprise network from contextual information related to one or more networks and configuration of the one or more networks and generating one or more contextual guides specific to one or more affected network resources of the enterprise network based on the one or more contextual insights.

Methods are provided in which a computing device obtains telemetry data associated with a network technology used in an enterprise network. The network technology is deployed using one or more assets of the enterprise. The methods further include the computing device determining, for each deployment of the network technology, a progression along an adoption lifecycle of the network technology, based on the telemetry data, generating, based on the progression of each deployment of the network technology, a first action set and an alternative second action set, different from the first action set, for further progression along the adoption lifecycle and providing the first action set and the alternative second action set for the further progression of the network technology along the adoption lifecycle.

According to one embodiment, a network device associates each tile object of a plurality of tile objects with a tile set. Each tile object includes one or more parameters of a communication network, and each tile set linked to one or more context objects for a dashboard interface. The network device further determines a dynamic context for the communication network, and identifies at least one tile set linked to a context object of the one or more context objects that matches the dynamic context (the at least one tile set includes one or more associated tile objects). The network device also determines a respective display position (e.g., defined by the dashboard interface) to each tile object of the one or more associated tile objects, and provides the dashboard interface for display, with each tile object of the one or more associated tile objects displayed according to the respective display position.

Enhanced user interface systems including dynamic context selection for cloud-based networks

Computer systems and methods for improving a computer's ability to interface with a user to configure one or more internetworking services provided by a first group of computers for a second group of computers using a pictorial graph with nodes that represent logical network objects. In an embodiment, a computer system comprises: a display; a memory persistently storing a set of instructions and a set of data that defines a plurality of logical network objects; one or more processors coupled to the memory and the display, wherein the one or more processors execute the set of instructions, which causes the one or more processors to: retrieve, from the memory, the set of data that defines a plurality of logical network objects, wherein a first logical network object represents a particular internetworking service that is provided by one or more first computing devices among the plurality of computing devices in the computer network, and a second logical network object represents a corresponding grouping of one or more second computing devices of the plurality of computing devices in the computer network; cause to present, on the display, a plurality of nodes in a first pictorial graph, wherein each node in the plurality of nodes corresponds respectively to each object in the plurality of logical network objects.

Interface for network configuration via graphical representations of network topology and internetworking services

Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for dynamic troubleshooting workspaces. A system can collect network statistics for a network and, based on the statistics, present a first workspace having a first set of interface components, each of the first set of interface components representing a respective network context, and each of the first set of interface components including a first set of objects associated with the respective network context. Next, the system can associate selected interface components from the first set of interface components to yield associated interface components, and dynamically present a second workspace having a second set of interface components selected based on the associated interface components, each of the second set of interface components representing a different respective network context related to the associated interface components, and each of the second set of interface components including a second set of objects associated with the different respective network context.

Display screen with graphical user interface

Techniques for sorting and filtering a list in a space-constrained viewing area are described. A filter widget and a list of items are displayed in a view of an electronic display screen. In response to user input selecting the filter widget, and without changing to a different view, a filter category overlay is displayed in the view to provide various selectable filter categories. In response to selection of a filter category, a visual depiction of the selected filter category is displayed in the view. The list of items is filtered according to the selected filter category and displayed in the view without changing to any other view. Subsequently added visual depictions are linearly stacked in the view. Further, a filter modification overlay, which provides selectable filtering attributes, is displayed upon selection of a visual depiction.
