A plurality of connection patterns is determined based on connectivity data collected by a plurality of agents. Each agent of the plurality of agents is installed on a respective compute node of a plurality of compute nodes. The connectivity data collected by each agent of the plurality of agents includes node-local connectivity data indicating node-local connections for the respective compute node on which the agent is installed. The node-local connections include communications with at least one application entity hosted by the respective compute node. A graph representation that is organized with respect to the at least one application entity hosted by each of the plurality of compute nodes is generated based on the plurality of connection patterns.
