Cloud Graph

Get a comprehensive understanding of the cloud graph

The cloud graph gives you a clear, operational view of your infrastructure and the relationships between different resources. It brings discovery, codification, and deployment into a single visual graph, so you can reason about infrastructure before deciding how to change it.

The cloud graph shows infrastructure across all collections you configured in Bluebricks. While the graph itself shows all managed environments and thier states, Discovery allows you to drill in and see all resources provisioned to your cloud even if those were are not managed by code.

How the cloud graph works

The cloud graph starts with discovery.

Bluebricks first reads your cloud as it exists today and shows those resources in the graph. From there, each resource is labelled as either unmanaged (visible but not controlled) or managed (controlled via Bluebricks through an environment).

Graph canvas

The canvas shows the structure of a collection at a glance:

• Collection nodes

• Environment nodes represent managed environments

Resource explorer

The resource explorer drawer is where details live. It is the single source of truth for resource data.

What you see depends on what’s selected in the graph:

• If a collection is selected, it shows all resources in the collection, managed & unmanaged.

• If a environment is selected, it shows the packages and resources managed by that environment.

• If an artifact or resource selected, it shows details scoped to that node.

Managed resources are clearly labeled, with links back to the environment that owns them. Unmanaged resources remain selectable for codification.

Codification

Discovery is not just for viewing. Unmanaged resources can be turned into code through the cloud import agent.

Once codified, those resources become managed. Their ownership shifts from “cloud-only” to an explicit environment in the graph.

Notes and limitations

Discovery visibility depends on the permissions configured for the collection. Collections without discovery enabled will show managed resources only.
