  • receiving, by a controller in communication with agents installed at machines connected over a network, monitored data regarding business applications running over the machines;

    identifying, by the controller, performance issues from the received monitored data;

    providing, by the controller, an interactive user interface to enable creation of a query for the monitored data and the identified performance issues;

    receiving, through the provided interactive user interface, input associated with a new query including a SELECT clause, a FROM clause, and a WHEREIN clause;

    creating the new query based on the received input;

    converting at least a portion of the new query to contain a graph traversal path entirely within the FROM clause, wherein the graph traversal path represents a set of nodes the query must traverse, wherein the set of nodes are particular machines of the machines connected over that network that perform at least part of a business application of the business application, wherein the business application is indicated by the received input;
