Study Notes
DataMap Screen
- Provides a simple view for large volumes of data, eliminating the need for multiple dashboards
- Enables building a top-level view for complex systems and slicing observability data in new ways
Creating a Data Model
- Begins with creating a new group to define a base data model
- The data model defines the structure of the data map and helps create groups that appear on screen
- Allows selecting a metric from a list, such as a load time metric
Generating Groups
- Selecting 'generate groups' automatically highlights categories from metric labels for visualization
- Coralogix detects and sorts labels attached to metrics, categorizing data into groups
Customizing Data Map
- Enables reordering of groups to change the visualization of data
- Example: reordering by country, then method, then request IP address
- Can add color to the data map based on different metrics, such as load time
- Allows selecting aggregation functions, such as average, and setting threshold values
Visualizing Data
- Provides a high-level view of problem areas in the data and immediate feedback on system changes
- Enables zooming in on a node to investigate low-level data and viewing detailed information for a specific element
- Allows filtering nodes in the map based on fields available on the chosen data model metric, such as viewing only HTTP data for a given country
Scalability
- Data maps can scale to render huge volumes of information in simple, digestible formats
- Makes tracking entire systems more straightforward
