Usage Trends
The charts at the User Trends page show the quick overview of your cloud infrastructure. Depending on the date range that you select, the charts will show hourly or daily statistics. For the 24 hours or less time period, the hourly statistics will be displayed. Otherwise, the charts will represent daily statistics.
Below you can find how the details on usage trends statistics and its measurement.
View Usage Trends
To view Usage Trends of your cloud:
- Go to your Control Panel > Metrics > User Trends.
- Click the tab you are interested in (CPU usage, Memory usage, Disk usage, IOPS, Bandwidth, Virtual/baremetal/smart servers).
- The chart with the statistics appears.
Period filter
By default, statistics are generated for the last three days. To specify another period, set the Start and End time and click the Apply button. Tick the Show in my Timezone box to show statistics according to your profile's time zone settings. You can zoom in a chart to view more detailed graphs.
Filtering by compute zone
It is possible to see the infrastructure statistics per compute zone as well as combination of the different zones. Statistics are shown in a form of area charts with highlighted color per each compute zone. On the side where the amount for each zone is shown, you can remove compute zones you do not wish to see by clicking on it. Selected compute zone will be grayed out and excluded from the graph. Also, the top 20 VSs are shown according to compute zone selection.
Top 20 VSs
Under the graphs you can find the list of top 20 VSs, which are shown for the compute zones selected in the filter, or for the whole cloud if nothing is filtered. Each VS is marked by color in accordance with compute zone color on the chart. Top 20 servers ordered by resource usage for the selected period are displayed together with their details:
| Details | CPU (cores) | Memory (MB) | Disk (GB) | IOPS (items) | Bandwidth (KB) | Virtual Servers |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| OS | VS operating system | |||||
| Label | the name of the server | |||||
| Disk Size | disk size allocated to VS | |||||
| RAM | the RAM size available to VS | |||||
| Compute resource | compute resource on which VS is built | |||||
| User | username of the VS owner | |||||
| Current Usage | the used amount of CPU cores for the last hour | the used amount of Memory for the last hour | the used amount of Disk for the last hour | |||
| Usage | average for the selected period is displayed. If the VS has not been existing for the whole period, the average for the actual (existing) period is displayed. | |||||
| Current Data | the latest instant usage data that we have | |||||
| Data | the total for the whole period is displayed | |||||

Usage Trends Statistics Measurement
Below you can find what statistics is shown depending on the chosen time period.
Chart | Hourly | Daily |
|---|---|---|
CPU | shows the total amount of cores per hour (virtual) | shows the maximum amount of cores per day for the set time period (virtual) |
Memory | shows the total amount of RAM per hour for all VSs in the cloud | shows the max amount of RAM per day for the set time period for all VSs in the cloud |
Storage | shows the total of all disks’ capacities per hour for all VSs in the cloud | shows the maximum of all disks’ capacities per day for the set time period for all VSs in the cloud |
IOPS | shows the total of data read/written for the entire cloud per hour | shows the total of data read/written for each day for the entire cloud for the time period set |
IOPS is measured in amount, indicated by metric prefix. For example, 8M=8 millions, 2G=2 billions etc. | ||
Baremetal servers | shows the total amount of baremetal servers per hour | shows the amount of baremetal servers in the cloud for each day for the time period set |
Smart Servers | shows the total amount of smart servers in the cloud per hour | shows the amount of smart servers in the cloud for each day for the time period set |
VSs | shows the amount of VSs per hour | shows the amount of VSs per day for the time period set |
Bandwidth | shows the total bytes sent/received for the entire cloud per hour | shows the total bytes sent/received for each day for the entire cloud for the time period set |
