This document discusses the need for improved visualization and monitoring of OpenStack networks. Traditional tools provide limited views of virtual and physical network resources that are disconnected and text-heavy. This makes it difficult for operations teams to correlate issues across layers. The PLUMgrid CloudApex platform aims to bridge this gap with a real-time, configurable visualization of both virtual and physical resources. It provides heatmap and topology views to help operations teams more easily isolate problems in private cloud environments. The remainder of the document advertises an upcoming demo of the CloudApex capabilities.
