Claim:
1. A method of identifying details of a flow of multiple transactions and generating a visualization of a topology of the flow of multiple transactions, the method comprising: detecting, by one or more processors, that a first computer system has received a current transaction initiation request from a precursory transaction, wherein detecting that the first computer system has received the current transaction initiation request from the precursory transaction is performed by a monitoring computer; wherein the current transaction initiation request is for an initiation of a current transaction in the first computer system, wherein the precursory transaction is part of a flow of other transactions that are upstream from the current transaction and that are initiated by a set of interconnected computer systems, wherein the current transaction initiation request contains parameter information that is recorded by each computer in the set of interconnected computer systems on which a transaction in the other transactions is executed, and wherein the parameter information comprises: identifying, by one or more processors, the flow of multiple transactions based on the flow transaction identifier and an identifier of the current transaction in the first computer system; and generating, by one or more processors, a visualization of a topology map of the current transaction and the other transactions based on information in the parameter information from the current transaction initiation request.
