Application awareness for Joyent
The Challenge
To create a more well-rounded, standalone product.
The Approach
Single sign-on
Single sign-on enables users to set up an account that can be used to collaborate with multiple resource owners.
Navigation
The CoPilot navigation system provides users with a clear understanding of, and the means to switch between, projects and organisations, while supporting a service-centric approach to app management.
App deployment
CoPilot enables users to quickly and effectively deploy mutli-service applications by defining its services and environment variables.
Topology
Understanding of the application’s architecture is supported by the topology feature; a visual representation of services and connections between them.
The big picture
The system facilitates users’ understanding of how services are performing, grouping together its services and resources to give a broader context of the overall application.
Metrics visualisation
Summarising multiple data points into just one value can obscure important information. To avoid that, CoPilot utilises box plots. These provide a neat way of graphically describing the distribution of data and identify
Monitoring and alerting
Users can create threshold alerts by defining types of behaviour and time aggregation.
The Deliverables
We created a well-rounded application management platform called, CoPilot, integrating Triton and ContainerPilot.
