Publication number: 20210342337Abstract: Data intake and query system (DIQS) instances supporting applications including lower-tier, focused, work group oriented applications, are tailored to display the metrics for the needs of the user. An interface caused by operation of an entity monitoring system (EMS) operating in conjunction with the lower-tier DIQS displays the monitored entities as individual representations. The user selects a metric and a metric threshold. The EMS causes a display of an interface having a representation for each monitored entity. Each representation includes a metric value and indicates an entity status based on the metric value and the threshold. The user can dynamically change the threshold on the interface for easy visualization of aggregation of monitored entities to determine the performance of the infrastructure. The interface also provides the user with the ability to select an entity and click through to the entity analysis workspace for more detailed information.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 12, 2021Publication date: November 4, 2021Inventors: Ai-Chi Lu, Arun Ramani, Nicholas Matthew Tankersley

Patent number: 11106442Abstract: Data intake and query system (DIQS) instances supporting applications including lower-tier, focused, work group oriented applications may be tailored to meet the specific needs of the users. Rather than offer pre-configured options, the DIQS-based application offers the user the ability to customize data collection before deploying the collectors for specified host entities within an IT environment. Once the user selects the metrics and/or log sources for data collection at a custom interface, the lower-tier DIQS generates custom script operable to establish collection of the source data having the selected metrics and events associated with selected log sources from the specified host entities. The user can display and analyze the collected data.Type: GrantFiled: July 30, 2018Date of Patent: August 31, 2021Assignee: Splunk Inc.Inventors: Fang I. Hsiao, Ai-chi Lu, Nicholas Matthew Tankersley
