What are Infrastructure Metrics Usage Statistics?

Infrastructure metrics usage statistics refer to data and information about the utilization and performance of various components and resources in an IT infrastructure. These specific Usage Statistics for Infrastructure Metrics relate to the data sent to your Metrics Stack.

Understanding how ingestion is calculated, managing active metrics, and being aware of the associated costs are vital for effectively using your Metrics platform. By staying informed about these metrics, you can optimize your usage, control expenses, and gain valuable insights into your application's performance.

Scroll down to find a detailed daily breakdown of Metrics usage. This section provides the following information:

• Active Metrics: Active metrics represent the maximum number of active time series with values inserted during a given time of day. For instance, if you're scraping metrics every 15 seconds, for example, if you are sending metrics every 15s, your metrics per minute is approximately x4 that value, but it's also very possible not all sources will be sending every 15s.
• Metrics Per Minute: The rate at which metrics are being sent, measured in metrics per minute.
• Usage Percentage: A percentage representing your current Metrics data usage in comparison to your plan limits.

Plan Limits

It's important to note that your Metrics usage should align with your plan limits to avoid any overage charges or service interruptions.
