Alert management within a network based virtual collaborative space
First Claim
1. A method for providing alerts in a virtual collaboration space, comprising:
- transmitting, by a server, content page data for a collaborative interface with at least one graphic element to a plurality of client devices, the at least one graphic element associated with time series data for a distributed business transaction executed over a plurality of servers;
creating an alert based on a threshold for the time series data, the threshold received from a first client device of the plurality of client devices;
creating a first log entry for the created alert, the first log entry provided within the collaborative interface,detecting the time series data exceeds the threshold;
generating an alert event in response to detecting the threshold was exceeded, wherein the alert event associated with an identifier for a first user, the first time, and creation time stamp for the first log entry are provided on the collaborative interface automatically as a link; and
including in the collaborative interface a second log entry in the log of events, the second log entry linked with the first log entry and displaying the first user identifier, the first time, alert data, the creation time stamp, and the link to the first log entry.

Abstract
A network-based collaborative problem solving space is provided for managing alerts. The virtual collaboration space provide a virtual space for viewing streaming time series data, generating alerts for time series data, and viewing triggered alerts based on a threshold associated with the generated alert. Alert generation and triggering is automatically tracked within an event log, with particular event log entries associated with the alert generation and the triggering of an alert. When an alert is triggered, a link to the event log entry associated with generating the alert is provided. By reviewing the alert generation and surrounding event log entries, users of the virtual collaboration space may gain context as to the motivations for generating the original alert and thereby better understand whether the triggering of the alert is a serious issue.

9. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having embodied thereon a program, the program being executable by a processor to perform a method for providing alerts in a virtual collaboration space, the method comprising
transmitting, by a server, user interface data with at least one graphic element to a plurality of client devices, the at least one graphic element associated with time series data for a distributed business transaction executed over a plurality of servers; -
receiving alert data for the time series data, the alert data received from a first client device of the plurality of client devices; creating a first log entry for an alert created based on the alert data, the first log entry provided within the collaborative interface; and generating an alert event in response to monitoring the time series data based on the alert data, the alert event associated with an identifier for a first user, the first time, and creation time stamp for the first log entry are provided on the collaborative interface automatically as a link; and including in the collaborative interface a second log entry in the log of events, the second log entry linked with the first log entry and displaying the first user identifier, the first time, alert data, the creation time stamp, and the link to the first log entry. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)

16. A system for delivering an agent on a machine, comprising:
-
a processor; memory; and one or more modules stored in memory and executable by the processor to provide content page data for a collaborative interface to a plurality of client devices, the collaborative interface including time series data for a distributed business transaction executed over a plurality of servers, create an alert based on a threshold for the time series data, the threshold received from a first client device of the plurality of client devices, create a first log entry for the created alert, the first log entry provided within the collaborative interface, generate an alert event in response to detecting the threshold was exceeded by the time series data, the alert event associated with an identifier for a first user, the first time, and creation time stamp for the first log entry are provided on the collaborative interface automatically as a link, and include in the collaborative interface a second log entry linked with the first log entry and in the log of events, the second log entry displaying the first user identifier, the first time, alert data, the creation time stamp, and the link to the first log entry.
