1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
running computing resources in a private network of a cloud system, wherein the private network is usable by a user account registered with the cloud system;
receiving, via an interface that is usable to manage the private network, a request from the user account for a visualization of network relationships between the computing resources in the private network;
obtaining resource data that indicates the computing resources running in the private network, the resource data including attributes for the computing resources that indicate networks relationships between the computing resources;
using the resource data, determining the network relationships between the computing resources in the private network;
generating the visualization that depicts the network relationships between the computing resources in the private network, wherein the visualization of the network relationships between the computing resources includes:
a first visual element that visually displays a subnetwork (subnet) of the private network;
a second visual element that visually displays a route table that is connected to the subnet;
a third visual element that visually displays a gateway usable to communicate with external resources that are external to the private network; and
a fourth visual element that visually displays a network connection over which traffic flows between the route table and the gateway; and
causing presentation of the visualization of the network relationships between the computing resources to the user account via the interface such that the interface visually displays the first visual element that visually displays the subnet, the second visual element that visually displays the route table, the third visual element that visually displays the gateway, and the fourth visual element that visually displays the network connection.
