Usage

The Usage section of the Console application contains detailed usage statistics information for each of the tenants associated with your account. The data is available on a monthly basis, only for the months that have been completed.

Usage overview

The Usage overview page provides a dashboard with all usage statistics relating to your environments and tenants.

Usage overview

At the top of the page, you will find the following two filters:

  • Environment filter - Allows you to select from which environment you want to view the data. You do not need to be in the environment to view the data from it. For example, if you have a production environment and a development environment, you can view the data from the development environment even if you are logged in and viewing the Console application from the production environment. You can also dive into the individual tenant data, in case you want to identify high-usage tenants. In the following screenshot, you can see the filter showing three environments, with a tenant called “subtenant-prod” being selected from the production environment. As a reminder, you can name each environment in the Environments page of the Console application. Environments Filter

  • Date filter - Allows you to select the time range you want to view in the graphs below. The default range is “Last 1 Year”, but it can be adjusted to whatever months are desired. As a reminder, only the completed month’s data is available in the Console application. Date Filter

The first usage widget shows the data for the last available month in the selected time range. The month can be viewed in the top right corner of each tile. Last Month Statistics

The following tiles are included:

  • Environments and tenants - Displays the number of environments and total tenants, including the type of environment (public cloud versus dedicated cloud) and if they are active or not.
  • Storage - Displays the latest total Operational Data Store metric from the last month. All tenants across all environments are aggregated in this metric.
  • Messages - Displays the latest total messages metric from the last month. All tenants across all environments are aggregated in this metric. The full calculation of messages can be found in the Cumulocity license metrics documentation.
  • Devices - Displays the latest total number of devices from the last month. All tenants across all environments are aggregated in this metric.
  • CPU(S) - Displays the latest total amount of CPU power used for microservices in the last month. All tenants across all environments are aggregated in this metric.
  • Memory - Displays the latest total amount of memory used for microservices in the last month. All tenants across all environments are aggregated in this metric.

Note that each tile includes a percentage change indicator. This represents the percentage difference between the first month of your selected time range and the last month displayed on the tile.

The next widget is the Messages graph, which displays the total number of messages across the selected time range. Messages

You can toggle the Show breakdown option to display all components of the messages metric. Messages Breakdown

The next widget is the Operational Data Store (ODS) graph, which displays the total aggregated storage used across all the selected environments and tenants. Operational Data Store

The last widget on the page is the Add-ons graph, which allows you to select one of the add-ons and view the usage data from it. Add-ons

You can use the selector at the top right to select one of the add-ons that are deployed on your environments. Each add-on has its own usage metrics that are then displayed in the graph. Add-ons Selector

Usage data

The Usage data page provides access to the raw underlying data that powers the graphs on the Usage overview page. It is a table with all the data, available for use with the same filters as the visualizations.

Usage data

The data is available at the tenant level. You can use the Configure columns option to add or remove metrics from the table.
