Team Center - How to improve the navigation in the map, creating custom perspectives?
Your implementation has many applications that are composed of many components, which are distributed across many servers. As a result, your map has several hundreds of nodes (>700).
Using the default perspectives, the navigation is very slow, difficult and the nodes are not aggregated as you expect.
Also the UI continuous refreshes affect visibility and the overall performance of the Enterprise Manager.
You are looking for options about how to create better perspectives. For example, you need a perspective that aggregates the map based on Hostname, Agent Name and resource Type

Second level : all data in the map will be aggregated based on the hostname + agentname. Click the + to one of the nodes, to drill down to the next level
<Please see attached file for image>
Third Level: all data in the map will be aggregated based on the hostname + agentname + resource type

Final level would be the resource type detail level. In this example, you will see all the webservices for the specific application.
