Patent ID: 11861133

Abstract:
Various example implementations are directed to apparatuses and methods for providing data communications, and for monitoring and/or analyzing operations of computing data-communication servers. According to an example embodiment, an apparatus includes processing circuitry to generate graphical-user data and further includes cloud-based data-communication servers. The cloud-based data-communication servers are to provide over one or more broadband networks including the Internet, data-communication services to recipients having respective accounts associated with use of the data-communication services and, for one or more of the accounts, to allow the recipients to permit the recipients to designate, for provisioning and/or deploying, certain of the one or more resources which are available from the system. In connection with the one or more resources, the graphical-user data includes information to display a timeline having a graphical indication corresponding to an operating state for a corresponding time period and further to display graphical markers which are aligned visually to indicate comparisons between two of more of the following: network-side events affecting multiple servers, server-side events affecting only a single server, and user-side events affecting a single user.
