Abstract
A method, user interface and system are provided that enable a user to monitor an information technology (“IT”) service that is provided via an electronics communications network. A user is visually presented with values that indicate a probability of IT service degradation or failure. A unified monitor automatically employs a set of parametric sensors to develop a comprehensive view of users cloud service providers and assess the robustness and security of specified services. The monitor combines relevant information that may affect a user'"'"'s confidence in services and applies algorithms to assess and forecast service reliability at any given time by vendor and dedicated computational assets. The monitor may present service predictions and reliability assessments through a visual dashboard along with available or recommended mitigation actions. The dashboard enables simultaneous visualization of assets, service, and metrics and thereby supports timely intuitive forensic analysis and optionally prompt application of mitigation activities.
