Hub Overview diagram
The Cloud Integration Hub Overview page shows the Hub Overview diagram when Cloud Integration Hub contains assets such as applications, topics, publications, or subscriptions.
The Hub Overview diagram provides a visual overview of the existing assets, grouped into categories.
When you rest on an asset in the diagram, all related assets are highlighted. For example, when you rest on a topic, the applications and the publications that publish to the topic and the subscriptions that subscribe to the topic are highlighted. When you click an asset, a drill down view of the asset and its relations to other assets appears. For example, when you click a publication, the drill down view shows the publishing application, the topic to which the publication publishes data, and the subscriptions that subscribe to the topic.
When you right-click an asset in the drill down view, an action menu opens. You can perform the following actions from the menu, based on the asset type:
•View. Applies to all assets. Opens the asset in view mode.
•Run. Applies to publications and subscriptions. Runs the publication or the subscription.
Filters
The search and view filters are available on the right of the Cloud Integration Hub Home page.
You can search for applications from the Home page and view the associated topics, publications, and subscriptions in the Hub Overview diagram.
You can filter the Hub Overview diagram to the following views:
•Process errors. Entities with current error events.
•Non-valid entities. Entities that are not valid.
•Topics with no publications. Topics with no associated publications.
•Topics with no subscriptions. Topics with no associated subscriptions.
•Most used topics. Three most used topics, based on the number of publications and subscriptions that use the topic.
When you filter the diagram, entities that are not relevant to the selected filter appear in view only mode.
