PRESENTING A TEMPORAL TOPOLOGY GRAPH OF A COMPUTING ENVIRONMENT AT A GRAPHICAL USER INTERFACE
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method of presenting a temporal topology graph of a computing environment at a graphical user interface, the method comprising:
- accessing, at a service provider, a temporal topology graph of a computing environment comprising a plurality of managed components, wherein the temporal topology graph comprises managed component relationship data for the plurality of managed components over an available time range, wherein the service provider is remote to the computing environment;
determining a selected time of the available time range for displaying a visualization of the temporal topology graph; and
displaying a visualization of the temporal topology graph of the computing environment at the selected time in a graphical user interface, wherein the visualization comprises a topology of the plurality of managed components and parent/child relationships interconnecting the plurality of managed components at the selected time.

Abstract
In a computer-implemented method of presenting a temporal topology graph of a computing environment at a graphical user interface, a temporal topology graph of a computing environment including a plurality of managed components is accessed at a service provider, wherein the temporal topology graph includes managed component relationship data for the plurality of managed components over an available time range, wherein the service provider is remote to the computing environment. A selected time of the available time range for displaying a visualization of the temporal topology graph is determined. A visualization of the temporal topology graph of the computing environment is displayed at the selected time in a graphical user interface, wherein the visualization includes a topology of the plurality of managed components and parent/child relationships interconnecting the plurality of managed components at the selected time.
