Trending Reports
The Trending reports compare a current period to a previous period. Trending reports can help
you answer questions about long-term trends and activity. The Trending reports query the MySQL
database to display events. For the Event Growth report, the default display period is one day (the
current day compared to the previous day). For the Daily Event Rate report, the default period
displayed is one week, based on the time the report was displayed.
Select
Trending
from the Reporting menu bar to display the Trending interactive reports. Two
Trending report tabs are available: the
Daily Event Rate
report tab and the
Event Growth
report
tab.
Daily Event Rate Report
The Daily Event Rate report provides the average event count for the period, an
n
day moving
average, and a daily event count. Below the chart, the total event count is displayed for the period
as well as the average event count for the period shown. The minimum and maximum daily event
counts for the period are also displayed.
