Abstract

This disclosure describes, in some examples, a monitoring platform to provide integrated system that ingests, correlates, and provides alerts for monitored data relating to nodes, which may include applications, services, containers, and network components. In one example, this disclosure describes a method that includes receiving, by a computing system in a network, criticality information about a node included within the network; identifying, by the computing system, a status change associated with the node; determining, by the computing system and based on the criticality information about the node, an impact resulting from the status change; determining, by the computing system and based on the determined impact, whether to communicate information about the determined impact; and sending, by the computing system, an alert about the determined impact.
