Configurational Metrics Dashboard

This dashboard provides a comprehensive overview of the configuration activities within the platform. It highlights object creation trends, offering insights into dashboards, alerts, reports, data models, and other configuration elements added over time. By analyzing these metrics, administrators can understand platform usage patterns and identify recent configuration activities.

Accessing the Configuration Metrics Dashboard

To access the Configuration Metrics Dashboard:

  • Navigate to the left navigation menu -> Dashboards
  • In the search bar, type Platform adoption and engagement, open the folder, and then click on Configuration Metrics Dashboard.

Dashboard Panels

The Configuration Metrics Dashboard consists of multiple panels grouped by object type and time range. Each panel displays a count of objects created, helping track adoption and setup activity across different configuration entities with time-based analysis.

Each column represents a configuration object type, such as:

  • Dashboards
  • Alerts
  • Reports
  • Data Models
  • Insights
  • UTM
  • Log Analysis
  • Data Enrichments
  • Context Streams
  • O11ySource Instances

Each row represents a specific time range, showing how many objects were created in that period. The time range rows are organized as:

  • Total count (e.g., Total Dashboards)
  • Last 1 week
  • Last 1–2 weeks
  • Last 2–3 weeks
  • Last 3–4 weeks
  • Previous month

Dashboards Metrics Panels

  • No. of Dashboards: Total dashboards created till date.
  • Dashboards Created in Last X Weeks: Tracks dashboards created in weekly intervals.
  • Dashboards Created in Previous Month: Shows the dashboards configured in the previous calendar month.

Alerts Metrics

  • No. of Alerts: Total alert rules configured on the platform.
  • Alerts Created in Last X Weeks: Weekly creation trend of alerts.
  • Alerts Created in Previous Month: Total number of alerts configured last month.

Reports Metrics

  • Data Models Created in Last X Weeks: Weekly data model creation count.
  • Data Models Created in Previous Month: Data models created during the last month.

Insights Metrics

  • No. of Insights: Total insights generated using configuration data.
  • Insights Created in Last X Weeks: Weekly breakdown of new insights.
  • Insights Created in Previous Month: Previous month’s insight generation statistics.

UTMs Metrics

Conclusion

The Configuration Metrics Dashboard provides administrators with a bird’s-eye view of how different platform configuration elements are being created and adopted. By tracking trends across dashboards, alerts, reports, data models, and more, stakeholders can evaluate platform adoption, monitor setup activity, and identify periods of peak or declining configuration activity.

Use this dashboard regularly to stay informed and proactively manage platform configuration health and adoption trends.
