I'm imagining something similar to a 3D wireframe model of networks and systems, with particles that move around between nodes that represent requests or IOPS.

Circuit breakers, bottlenecks, IOPs, load shedding, traffic behaviours can all be visualised.

I'm not sure how you would represent latency with this visualization but that's also important. It more represents throughput.

Can also be used to represent human work/tasks itself.
