    Abstract: Systems and methods for displaying hierarchical data are described. In an implementation, a method includes processing hierarchical data describing a distributed computing environment. The hierarchical data includes a plurality of levels, in which, at least one of the levels includes a plurality of containers, each of the containers includes one or more items, and each of the items is disposed in another level that is a child of the at least one level. The processed hierarchical data is output for display in a single window on a display device such that the hierarchical data indicates a relationship between each of the items and a respective one of the containers and is configured such that each of the items may be edited without interacting with another window.
