There are disclosed devices, system and methods for creating and displaying a graph representation of a topology of a computer network of physical network objects for an application. A first physical network object selects portions of sets of data messages being sent over a period of time by the application and related network objects; and collects network configuration and time dimension information from the portions of messages. A second physical network object receives the information and uses it to determine topology information for the application over time, which includes unique keys of, types of objects of, types of relationships between pairs of, groupings of, metrics data of, and time dimension data for the physical network objects. The topology information is stored and queried at the second object to create and display various graph representations of the topology information as it changes over time.

Creating and displaying a graph representation of a computer network topology for an executing application

There are disclosed devices, system and methods for continual automated discovering of a topology of a computer network of network objects for an application. A first network object selects portions of sets of data messages being sent over time by the application and related network objects; and collects network configuration and time dimension information, and timeseries information from the portions of messages. A second network object receives the information and uses it to determine topology information for the application over time, which includes unique keys of, types of objects of, types of relationships between pairs of, groupings of, time dimension data of and metrics data of the network objects. The topology information can be stored; and can be queried to create and display a graph representation of the topology information that changes over time.
