In most networks it’s important to know which nodes have the greatest impact, and consider what the effects would be if they failed.

In the Impact view, all nodes are sized based on how many nodes depend on them. In the Alerts view, only nodes with warnings or errors are sized by their dependencies.

By interacting with the chart, you can focus on a single node and examine its dependencies.

Styling in KeyLines can also improve the flow of the chart. For example, gradients on links matching the node colours on each end can smooth the transitions between areas on the graph and curved links applied to sequential layout enhance the directionality of links.
