US Patent 12066921 Agentless distributed monitoring of microservices through a virtual switch

Disclosed are systems, computer-readable media and methods for monitoring performance data across microservices. One example method includes establishing a service policy configured on a centralized switch controller, applying the service profile to a virtual interface associated with a microservice, mapping a microservice name for the microservice to an IP address and a port number, tracking a protocol flow for the microservice, wherein the protocol flow is associated with a virtual switch, to yield data, aggregating the data to yield aggregated data and presenting the aggregated data on a user interface.
