    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: Techniques to display a graphic representation of a computer network topology are described. In one example, a network device is configured to generate an output comprising a graphic representation of a topology of a computer network, the computer network comprising compute nodes interconnected by a packet-based communications network provided by a set of network devices, wherein the policy controller is further configured to: identify, amongst the compute nodes or the network devices, a network element having state information indicating an operational state of interest; modify state information for one or more resources that are coupled to the identified network element; and based upon whether the network topology information indicates a visible graphic symbol for the identified network element, output a visual indicator corresponding to the visible graphic symbol or corresponding to a visible resource that is communicably coupled to the identified network element.

    Abstract: An example control plane that is executed on one or more processors in a distributed computing system is configured to receive an indication of a node to be onboarded into the distributed computing system, wherein the node comprises one of a compute node or a network device node, to discover one or more compute resources or network device resources that are associated with the node, and to assign, based on the discovery, the node to a collector that is executed in the distributed computing system, wherein the collector is configured to collect real-time telemetry data for the node during operation of the node. The control plane is further configured to receive, from the collector, the real-time telemetry data for the node that is collected by the collector, and to output, for display, a visual representation of the real-time telemetry data for the node.
