Display of message flow interactions corresponding to service invocations in a computing environment based on a service-oriented distributed computing model. Aggregations are created, where multiple instances of a particular deployed service operation may be represented by a single node (even though those instances may be hosted on different application servers). Links are depicted between the nodes, where the links represent call paths or invocations among the service operations. A user obtains a high-level, in-context view of the as-observed interactions among service operation instances, and may drill down for further details. A presentation to the user can be automatically scoped to the set of services which are observed as interacting (i. e. , via their call relationships), so that the user can be shown that part of the environment that is immediately relevant to a context in which the user launches the view.

A method for providing a graphical user interface (GUI), where the GUI allows a user to look ahead to object relationships at the additional navigational layers in a taxonomy, without navigating to other layers in the taxonomy, wherein the method includes: selecting an object on a display screen to view the objects context at another layer in the taxonomy; providing the user with a pop-up taxonomy menu; selecting from the pop-up taxonomy menu a layer within the taxonomy to see the selected object's context in relation to additional objects of the taxonomy; providing the user a window display in the area of the selected object; wherein the window displays the current object selected in relationship and in context to the additional objects at the selected layer in the taxonomy; and does not obscure or replace an original view or the selected object.

A method, system, and computer program product for identifying the relationships between managed resources and displaying these relationships and resources in an interactive computerized system. A Relationships Display and Highlight (RDH) utility provides both an interactive view of a primary relationship via a topological graph and an interactive associated view to highlight the secondary relationships between a set of managed resources. The RDH utility links the graphical view to the associated view by displaying and/or highlighting the resources in the graphical view when secondary relationships are interactively explored in the associated view. When a secondary relationship is selected via the associated view, each resource which participates directly in the selected secondary relationship is highlighted, within the topological graph. When a resource is selected via the primary view, the RDH utility identifies a set of relationships in the associated view in which the resource participates.
