# \[AIAS-01] Explore the System

From the "Systems" page, you can explore all the Systems within the sandbox. A System is the application being optimized; in our example, it is called "Auth service". You can get to this page either by selecting it on the sidebar or by following the link in the header of the opened Offline Study.

As you can see, the System is represented by several components, whose parameters and metrics you can explore:

* The JVM powering the application. In this example, we selected to optimize 5 common JVM parameters like heap size and garbage collector (click on the card for the full set of 61 parameters for the OpenJDK 11 runtime)
* The Kubernetes Container, whose parameters CPU and Memory limits and requests have all been selected in the optimization scope
* The Kubernetes Workload, which tracks deployment-level metrics like the number of pod replicas
* The Web Application, whose metrics are used to measure the impact of the configurations experimented during the study, including the cost and the application performance metrics

# Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation

If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.akamas.io/quick-guides/quick-guides-akamas-in-a-sandbox/aias-01-guide-explore-an-optimization-study-for-a-kubernetes-microservices-application/aias-01-explore-the-system.md?ask=<question>
```

The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
