Architecture Visualization
About the Architecture Visualization
The Architecture visualization shows the topology of your application network. In this visualization, you can change display names of nodes, add tags, and assign nodes to layers. The Architecture visualization is most useful for documentation and presentation purposes since you can share your network’s architecture without visible metrics.
View Information About One Service in Your Network
When you select a node within the canvas, the node and its dependency stack are highlighted and all unconnected nodes are unavailable. Anypoint Visualizer displays information about the node in a card. This card is divided into the following tabs:
-
Details Provides information about the node.
-
Customization Provides information about the layer to which the node is assigned and the tags assigned to the node. You can edit the node’s display name or change the layer and tags from this section.
Filtering Your View
When you select a node (service) that has dependents and dependencies, you have the option to also select all nodes related to the service you selected. If the node you select does not have dependents and dependencies, this option is not offered.
You can hide nodes through what you select in the canvas:
-
To hide a single node, select it, and then click Hide selected service.
-
To hide multiple nodes, multiselect them, and then click Hide selected services.
-
To hide all of the services other than the selected nodes, click Hide other services. If you want to hide everything that is not related to a given dependency stack, select a node and then click Select dependents and dependencies, which selects all nodes related to the service which you selected. Then, click Hide other services.
You can search for a node (service) in the Search services text field. Services containing your search in any part of their name are highlighted, while others fade.
