Description

Clarifies how data is populated in the Infrastructure tab for a selected service in the Applications UI. This PR also attempts to provide guidance on how to self-diagnose / troubleshoot when the Infrastructure tab does not have any data.

I searched through some GitHub issues and discussion threads in addition to the resources @lucabelluccini linked to in #4359, but I wasn't able to find much information on troubleshooting.

This PR definitely needs more work, but I thought I'd open it to have something for the product/dev teams to respond to. @roshan-elastic can you help me find a technical reviewer? @lucabelluccini does this align with what you were expecting when you opened #4359?

A documentation preview will be available soon.

Request a new doc build by commenting
  • Rebuild this PR: run docs-build
  • Rebuild this PR and all Elastic docs: run docs-build rebuild

run docs-build is much faster than run docs-build rebuild. A rebuild should only be needed in rare situations.

If your PR continues to fail for an unknown reason, the doc build pipeline may be broken. Elastic employees can check the pipeline status here.

Hey @colleenmcginnis,

Thanks for this. Let me ask some of the team how this works - it was made a fair while ago.

@kpatticha / @jasonrhodes - Do you know who might be able to evaluate these docs which are explaining how the 'infrastructure' tab works in the service views?

Preview - Infrastructure Tab
Preview - No data shown in the infrastructure tab

@roshan-elastic

@MiriamAparicio would you be able to take a look at these documents? I believe you’re the best person to provide input since you worked on the infrastructure tab in the service views.

If your availability is limited, I’m happy to dig into the code and help out
