Operational Data

The Operational Data query subjects are divided into two namespaces, Feature Real Time (by Server), and Feature Real Time (Servers Combined), which provides the usage data from the first namespace aggregated slightly so that usage from multiple license servers has been combined, which is necessary to get accurate peak usage numbers for features that are served by more than one license server.

Both namespaces have data by the minute, which is the most granular data as collected by the agent, and then aggregated into hourly and daily values.

The Servers Combined namespace also includes a folder with query subjects that represent lists of top features used, by their utilization percentage. The same values could be derived by the other existing query subjects, but accessing them through these lists provides better performance, which is desirable for the Operational Dashboard.

Unlike the familiar aggregation of historical data, the aggregation for the Servers Combined hourly and daily data, and for combining usage from multiple servers, is done implicitly as part of the data connection; no extra step is necessary.

Operational Data folders expanded to show the levels and query subjects (in Query Studio)
