Automatically Discover Resource Connections & Behaviors with Upwind’s Orbital View

We are excited to announce Upwind Orbital View – an easy, new way to visualize your most important resource information through holistic inventory mapping and dynamic network analysis, helping you rapidly understand your resources’ behavior and risks.

The Upwind Orbital View can be found in the Resource Overview section of the Upwind Topology Map, giving you the ability to easily visualize resource context, such as related images, storage, privilege attributes, identity roles with access, internet traffic, security groups, resource communication, compute resources and API endpoints.

You can use the Orbital View to instantly understand the most important environmental context for each of your running resources, as well as drilling down on any of the categories for additional information, such as diving into specific ingress communication including ports, protocols and throughput.

That post was about discovery. This one is about what you can…
