Diagramming system for a distributed data processing system

Abstract:

A method, a system, and a computer program product for generating a representation of a distributed data processing system. A computer system instruments a set of elements in the distributed data processing system with a set of recorders. Encryption information is sent by the computer system to the set of recorders in the distributed data processing system, wherein the set of recorders uses the encryption information to decrypt traffic in the distributed data processing system. The computer system then sends a set of test cases into the distributed data processing system. The representation of the distributed data processing system is generated by the computer system using results from sending the set of test cases into the distributed data processing system, reducing a time for the computer system to generate the representation of the distributed data processing system.
