A spider chart is a graphical method of displaying multivariate data in the form of a two-dimensional chart of three or more quantitative variables represented on axes starting from the same point.

Possible metrics for this type of charts are :

  1. A count of requested VM instances for cloud platforms such as Nimbus, Eucalyptus, OpenStack
  2. Wall-clock time of pending, launched, and terminating status of VM instances
  3. CPU cores, disks, memories allocated when an instance requested
