  1. Log in to the Container Observability application.

  2. On the sidebar menu, click Applications and choose Apps Map. The Apps Map page displays the collection of running applications, microservices, and their dependencies.

  3. Hover on the services and double-click on any container icon. The Configuration and Performance Snapshot page is displayed.

  4. Under Performance Snapshot, click Three-layer.

The Three Layer View page displays the following combined metadata:

  • Application represents the particular container scheduled in a Pod and its metrics of resource usage.

  • Kubernetes cluster represents the details of a node in which the Pod has been scheduled along with its neighbor Pods(services) hosted by that node and the health of its resources.

  • Infrastructure represents the virtual machine(instance) deployed under the cloud platform. The deployed cloud gateways collect the data of the VMs (cloud metrics) in the infra layer with other cloud attributes such as Instance ID, VPC, Region, and Subnet details displayed.
