What should we measure?
All applications should have the following metrics in common:
Number of Users
- by community (department, MIT affiliation, etc)
- total unique users
- number of user accounts
- number of user sessions/logins
- by time period (peak usage, average usage)
System Utilization
- CPU
- memory
- disk space
- network
Application Specifics (metrics here vary from applications to application)
- wikis (automated)
- DW (automated)
- Roles (automated)
- Jira
- Jabber
- RT
- Web Servers (Apache, etc)
- Web Services (UAWS)
- Thalia (manual)
- Stellar (manual)
- Touchstone unique users by app and logins by app (should merge with DW to report by community)
- Developer Tools
- Kerberos (via RT, bug fixes, commits to tree)
How do we measure them?
Getting information into the Data Warehouse
- in a standard format
- except system utilization
SAMM would provide a continuous view of these stats
- show trends
- how app behaves (learn more about environment)
- blending of stats (users, memory, spikes)
What do we have right now?
What requires more work?
- how do we allocate resources?
