# Dashboard Design Spec ## Goal Redesign the Dashboard tab as a progressive drill-down dashboard for Apache Camel application monitoring. Follows the RED method (Rate, Errors, Duration) plus saturation (inflight exchanges). The sidebar drives scope: all applications → single application → single route. Each level answers a focused question with increasing detail. Business/support users are the primary audience — the dashboard focuses on exchange health, throughput, error rates, and SLA compliance. Ops/infrastructure monitoring stays on the Runtime tab (agent health, JVM metrics). Power users needing custom analysis will use Grafana; this dashboard targets the 80% sweet spot. ## Architecture The Dashboard tab renders one of three views based on the current sidebar selection: | Sidebar state | Dashboard level | Question answered | |---|---|---| | No selection | Level 1: All Applications | Is my landscape healthy? Which app needs attention? | | Application selected | Level 2: Application | How is this app performing? Which route is the problem? | | Route selected | Level 3: Route | What's happening in this route? Where's the bottleneck? | All levels share the same time range (controlled by the top bar's time selector) and auto-refresh behavior (LIVE mode with 30s refresh). ## Level 1: All Applications Overview ### KPI Strip (4 metrics) | Metric | Source | Trend | |---|---|---| | Total throughput (msg/s) | `stats_1m_all` aggregate | vs previous period | | Error rate (%) | failed / total | vs previous period | | P99 latency (ms) | `approx_percentile(0.99)` | vs previous period | | Inflight exchanges | running count | current value | Uses the existing `useExecutionStats()` hook with no application/route filter. ### Application Health Table Columns: App name, Status dot, Throughput (msg/s), Error Rate (%), P99 (ms), Active Routes, Sparkline (12-bucket trend). **Status dot derivation:** - Green: error rate < 1% AND P99 < SLA threshold (300ms) - Yellow: error rate 1-5% OR P99 between 200-300ms - Red: error rate > 5% OR P99 > SLA threshold Row click navigates to that application in the sidebar (transitions to Level 2). Data source: `useRouteMetrics()` aggregated by application. The route-level metrics are grouped by `appId` and aggregated to produce application-level rows. ### Charts (2, side-by-side) 1. **Throughput over time** — Stacked area chart, one series per application. Shows relative volume and total. 2. **Error rate over time** — Line chart, one line per application. Highlights which app is misbehaving. Data source: `useStatsTimeseries()` with no application filter, extended to support per-app breakdown. This requires a new API parameter or a new endpoint that returns timeseries grouped by application. ### New API endpoint needed `GET /api/v1/search/stats/timeseries/by-app` — Returns timeseries buckets grouped by application name. Query: `stats_1m_app` materialized view. Response shape: ```json { "apps": { "order-service": [ { "time": "...", "totalCount": 42, "failedCount": 1, ... } ], "payment-gateway": [ ... ] } } ``` ## Level 2: Single Application ### KPI Strip (4 metrics) Same four metrics as Level 1 but scoped to the selected application. Uses `useExecutionStats({ application })`. ### Route Performance Table Columns: Route ID, Throughput (msg/s), Success %, Avg Duration (ms), P99 Duration (ms), Error Rate (%), Sparkline. Sortable by any column. Row click navigates to that route in the sidebar (transitions to Level 3). Data source: `useRouteMetrics({ appId })` — already exists and returns per-route data filtered by application. ### Charts (2, side-by-side) 1. **Throughput over time** — Stacked area by route. 2. **Latency percentiles over time** — P50, P95, P99 lines with SLA threshold (300ms horizontal dashed line). Data source: `useStatsTimeseries({ application })` for the aggregate latency chart. For per-route throughput breakdown, needs the same by-app pattern extended to by-route: ### New API endpoint needed `GET /api/v1/search/stats/timeseries/by-route` — Returns timeseries buckets grouped by route ID, filtered by application. Query: `stats_1m_route` materialized view. Response shape: ```json { "routes": { "process-order": [ { "time": "...", "totalCount": 42, ... } ], "validate-payment": [ ... ] } } ``` ### Top 5 Errors Compact table: Error Type, Route, Count, Last Seen. Click navigates to the Exchanges tab with the error type pre-filled as a search filter. Section hidden when there are zero errors in the time window. Data source: PostgreSQL query on `executions` table, aggregating by `error_type` column for the selected application and time range. ### New API endpoint needed `GET /api/v1/search/errors/top` — Returns top N errors grouped by error type. Parameters: `application` (optional), `routeId` (optional), `from`, `to`, `limit` (default 5). Response shape: ```json [ { "errorType": "ConnectTimeoutException", "routeId": "validate-payment", "count": 47, "lastSeen": "2026-03-29T15:58:00Z" } ] ``` Source: PostgreSQL query on `executions` table. Group by `error_type` column (added in V10 migration). Filter to `status = 'FAILED'` within the time range. Order by count descending, limit to N. ## Level 3: Single Route ### KPI Strip (4 metrics) Same four metrics scoped to the selected route. Uses `useExecutionStats({ application, routeId })`. ### Charts (3, in a row) 1. **Throughput over time** — Area chart, single series. 2. **Latency percentiles over time** — P50, P95, P99 lines with SLA threshold. 3. **Error rate over time** — Area chart, red-tinted. Data source: `useStatsTimeseries({ application, routeId })` — already exists. ### Compact Process Diagram with Heatmap Reuses the `ProcessDiagram` component but with a **latency heatmap overlay** instead of the execution overlay. Processor nodes are colored by aggregate performance: - Color scale: green (fast) → yellow (moderate) → red (slow), computed relative to the route's own processors (not absolute thresholds). The slowest processor in the route gets the warmest color. - Data source: `useProcessorMetrics({ routeId, appId })` — already exists. Uses `avgDurationMs` or `p99DurationMs` for the color mapping. - No click interactions beyond visual identification. Clicking a node scrolls to its row in the processor table below. - Compact sizing: fixed height (~250px), the diagram fits-to-view within that space. Implementation: a new `heatmapOverlay` prop on `ProcessDiagram` (or a wrapper component) that takes a `Map` and colors nodes accordingly. Reuses the existing diagram layout and rendering — only the fill color logic changes. ### Processor Metrics Table Columns: Processor ID, Type, Invocation Count, Avg Duration (ms), P99 Duration (ms), Error Rate (%). Default sort: P99 descending (slowest processor first — highlights bottlenecks). Data source: `useProcessorMetrics({ routeId, appId })` — already exists. ### Top 5 Errors Same format as Level 2 but scoped to this route. Uses the same `top-errors` endpoint with `routeId` parameter. ## Data Requirements Summary ### Existing endpoints (no backend changes) | Endpoint | Used at | |---|---| | `GET /search/stats` | All levels (KPI strip) | | `GET /search/stats/timeseries` | Level 2, Level 3 (charts) | | `GET /routes/metrics` | Level 1 (app table, aggregated), Level 2 (route table) | | `GET /routes/metrics/processors` | Level 3 (processor table + heatmap) | ### New endpoints needed | Endpoint | Used at | Source | |---|---|---| | `GET /search/stats/timeseries/by-app` | Level 1 (charts) | `stats_1m_app` view | | `GET /search/stats/timeseries/by-route` | Level 2 (throughput chart) | `stats_1m_route` view | | `GET /search/errors/top` | Level 2, Level 3 (top errors) | `executions` table | ### Existing frontend components reused - `KpiStrip` / `TabKpis` — KPI display with trends - `DataTable` — sortable tables - `AreaChart`, `LineChart` — time-series charts - `Sparkline` — compact trend in table cells - `StatusDot` — health indicators - `ProcessDiagram` — route visualization (extended with heatmap) ## Scope Exclusions - No user-customizable panels or drag-and-drop layout (power users use Grafana) - No JVM/infrastructure metrics on Dashboard tab (that's Runtime tab) - No alerting or threshold configuration (out of scope) - No comparison mode (e.g., "this week vs last week" side-by-side) - No export/PDF functionality
