Decoupled update cycle and disparate search frequency dispatch for dynamic elements of an asset monitoring and reporting system
An asset monitoring and reporting system (AMRS) implements decoupled update cycle and disparate search frequency dispatch for dynamic elements of an asset monitoring and reporting system. The AMRS identifies occurrence of an update to a visualization of a client dashboarding component of an AMRS, the visualization comprising dynamic elements and corresponding dynamic element searches that are each associated with a search query to be submitted for execution to obtain a value of a metric of an asset node associated with a respective dynamic element. The AMRS further sends a request indicative of the dynamic elements to a server component of the AMRS, receives dynamic element objects for the dynamic elements, the dynamic element objects specifying search queries corresponding to the dynamic elements, modifies dynamic element searches of the dashboarding component in accordance with the search queries, and stores a definition of the visualization as control information.
