Systems and methods for managing client requests to access services provided by a data center
Described embodiments provide systems and methods for managing client requests to access services provided by a data center. A method can include identifying, by a first device, metrics of client requests to a service communicated from a plurality of clients via one or more Internet service providers (ISPs) to a data center including a plurality of servers providing the service. The method can include identifying metrics of application programming interface (API) requests communicated between a plurality of microservices of the service responsive to the client requests being forwarded to the plurality of servers. The method can include identifying metrics of responses to the client requests. The method can include displaying a service graph generated to identify, via the metrics, an issue with at least one of the one or more ISPs, the plurality of microservices, or one or more WAN links.

(c) identifying, by the first device, third metrics for the service, the third metrics generated from responses to the client requests, the responses generated by the plurality of microservices and communicated between a second device and the plurality of clients via one or more wide area network (WAN) links, the second device intermediary between the plurality of servers and the plurality of clients and configured to select the one or more WAN links via which to communicate the responses to the client requests, the third metrics used to identify issues with the one or more WAN links;
(d) generating, by the first device, a service graph to identify issues with at least one of the one or more ISPs, the plurality of microservices, or the one or more WAN links, the issues identified using the first, second, and third metrics; and
(e) displaying, by the first device, on the service graph, one or more graphical indicators, the one or more graphical indicators generated using the first metrics, the second metrics, or the third metrics, and used to identify an issue with at least one of the one or more ISPs, the plurality of microservices, or the one or more WAN links.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the client requests are forwarded to the data center by a traffic manager configured to select one of a global traffic manager or the data center based on at least fourth metrics of the one or more ISPs.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first device is intermediary to the one or more ISPs and the data center.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein d further comprises generating, by the first device, the service graph comprising a plurality of nodes to represent at least each of the one or more ISPs, the second device, and the plurality of microservices of the service.
5. The method of claim 4 , further comprising generating, by the first device, the service graph to comprise arcs between each of the plurality of nodes to identify metrics of network traffic between each of the plurality of nodes.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the client requests are forwarded from the plurality of clients via the one or more ISPs to an application delivery controller configured to manage network traffic to the service.
7. The method of claim 6 , further comprising identifying, by the first device, from the application delivery controller, metrics of network traffic of the plurality of clients between the one or more ISPs and the service, and generating, by the first device, the service graph, to identify, via the metrics of network traffic, one or more issues between the one or more ISPs and the service.
8. The method of claim 1 , wherein (e) further comprises displaying, by the first device, the service graph generated to identify metrics of network traffic from the plurality of clients via the one or more ISPs through the data center and to the plurality of clients via the second device.
9. The method of claim 1 , wherein (e) further comprises identifying, by the first device, the issue via the service graph.
10. A system comprising:
a first device comprising one or more processors, coupled to memory and configured to:
identify first metrics for a service, the first metrics generated from client requests communicated between a client of a plurality of clients via an Internet service provider (ISP) to a data center comprising a plurality of servers providing the service, wherein the client requests are to access the service, and wherein the first metrics are used to identify issues with the one or more ISPs; and
wherein the first device is configured to:
identify second metrics for the service, the second metrics generated from application programming interface (API) requests communicated between a plurality of microservices of the service responsive to the client requests being forwarded to the plurality of servers, the second metrics used to identify issues with the plurality of microservices;
identify third metrics for the service, the third metrics generated from responses to the client requests, the responses generated by the plurality of services, communicated between a second device and the client via one or more wide area network (WAN) links, the second device intermediary between the plurality of servers and the plurality of clients and configured to select the one or more WAN links via which to communicate the responses to the client requests, the third metrics used to identify issues with the one or more WAN links;
generate a service graph to identify issues with at least one of the one or more ISPs, the plurality of microservices, or the one or more WAN links, the issues identified using the first, second, and third metrics; and
display on the service graph, one or more graphical indicators, the one or more graphical indicators generated using the first metrics, the second metrics, or the third metrics, and used to identify an issue with at least one of the one or more ISPs, the plurality of microservices, or the one or more WAN links.
11. The system of claim 10 , wherein the client requests are forwarded to the data center by a traffic manager configured to select one of a global traffic manager or the data center based on a least fourth metrics of the one or more ISPs.
12. The system of claim 10 , wherein the first device is intermediary to the one or more ISPs and the data center.
13. The system of claim 10 , wherein the first device is further configured to generate the service graph comprising a plurality of nodes to represent at least each of the one or more ISPs, the second device, and the plurality of microservices of the service.
14. The system of claim 13 , wherein the first device is further configured to generate the service graph to comprise arcs between each of the plurality of nodes to identify metrics on network traffic between each of the plurality of nodes.
15. The system of claim 10 , wherein the client requests are forwarded from the plurality of clients via the one or more ISPs to an application delivery controller configured to manage network traffic to the service.
