# Metrics Dashboard Tool

The **Metrics Dashboard tool** displays your application and environment's performance metrics. You can look at everything from CPU usage to completed operations. The dashboard also includes filters to help you view metrics across a date and time range, or a specific date and time. After you set your filters, performance metrics display in user-friendly charts. Hover over each chart to view precise measurements at that date and time. Or, export and print any of the charts to share with your team.

## Filtering the Metrics Dashboard

After you've made your filter selections, the results populate the Charts section of the dashboard. When you open the tool, the date and time range sets automatically and display performance metrics for the last four hours. You can use these defaults or change them as needed.

Here's an example of how the Filters section looks on the Metrics Dashboard:

You can use the following filters:

| Filter | Description |
| --- | --- |
| Client | Your Unqork client credentials. These automatically populate when you open the tool. > [!WARNING] > You cannot adjust this field. |
| Environment | Your current Unqork environment. This field automatically populates when you open the tool. > [!WARNING] > You cannot adjust this field. |
| Start Date | The start date you want to filter the application and database metrics. This field automatically populates with your current date. |
| Start Time | The start time you want to filter the application and database metrics. This field automatically populates with the time 4 hours before you opened the tool. The tool uses your current timezone. |
| End Date | The end date you want to filter the application and database metrics. This field automatically populates with your current date. |
| Start Time | The end time you want to filter the application and database metrics. This field automatically populates with the exact time you opened the tool. The tool uses your current timezone. |

To change the date and time range:

1. From the data picker, select a **Start Date**.
2. In the **Start Time** field, enter a time based on the 24-hour clock.
3. From the data picker, select an **End Date**.
4. In the **End Time** field, enter a time based on the 24-hour clock.
5. Click **Apply Filters**.

## Navigating the Charts

The Metrics Dashboard consists of the following charts:

- Application Server charts
- Database Server charts

These charts populate based on the date and time you choose in the dashboard's filters. Your date and time selections display as the horizontal axis of the charts. The vertical axis depends on the chart.

Let's take a look at each chart.

Application Server chartsDatabase Server charts

### Application Server Charts

The Application Servers section of the dashboard consists of various charts, including the following:

| Chart | Description |
| --- | --- |
| CPU | The percentage of time the CPU spent running your environment's applications. |
| Memory | The amount of physical RAM used versus the total amount of RAM available. |
| Load | The average system load over a specific time period. You'll see the average load in the last: - 1 minute - 5 minutes - 15 minutes |
| Network Traffic | The amount of network throughput coming and going from your applications. This chart is measured in kb/s (kilobytes per second). |

Here's an example of how the Application Servers charts look:

### Database Server Charts

The Database Servers section of the dashboard consists of various charts. These charts show you database metrics for UAT and production environments. You won't see metrics for staging environments. The charts include:

| Chart | Description |
| --- | --- |
| CPU | The percent of time the CPU spent running in your environment. |
| Memory | The amount of RAM in use. |
| Disk Space | The percentage of disk space used. |
| Connections | The total number of queries executed by Unqork's database. |
| Operations | The total number of operations performed. The types of operations you'll see in this chart are: - Query - Insert - Update - Delete |

In Unqork an application is a program used to perform specific tasks. An application can be one of two types: workflow or module.

The CPU (central processing unit) controls the interpretation and execution of instructions on your computer.

RAM (random-access memory) is your computer's short-term memory, where the data needed for your computer processor to run applications and open files is stored.

Use the UAT (user acceptance testing) environment to realistically test and navigate your applications as end-users would use them.

XLS is a file extension for Microsoft Excel spreadsheets

PDF (Portable Document Format) is a file format that allows users to share and print documents without modifying them.
