Edgesight Analytics provides four preconfigured Grafana dashboards designed for CDN traffic analysis. Each dashboard uses aggregated data to provide a different view of traffic, performance, cache behavior, and automated activity. The available dashboards are: * **Overview** * **Performance Analytics** * **HTTP & Cache Analytics** * **Bot Analytics** ## Open Your Dashboards From **Edgesight → Analytics** in the [Medianova Control Panel](https://cloud.medianova.com), select **Open Grafana**. You can also access the Grafana workspace directly at: `https://-analytics.medianova.com` Sign in using one of the dashboard accounts configured for the workspace. {% hint style="info" %} Dashboard accounts are managed from the **Users** section under **Edgesight → Analytics** in the Medianova Control Panel. You can add users, change passwords, or remove existing accounts. For details, see [**Access & Management**](/products/edgesight/analytics/access-and-management.md). {% endhint %} ## Available Dashboards ### Overview The **Overview** dashboard provides a high-level view of CDN traffic and delivery behavior. It includes: * Total requests * Total data transferred * Cache HIT ratio * Error ratio * Traffic by CDN resource * Traffic by country * HTTP status distribution Use Overview as the primary dashboard for monitoring overall CDN activity before investigating specific behavior in the other dashboards. {% hint style="info" %} Go to [**Overview**](/products/edgesight/analytics/your-dashboards/overview-dashboard.md) for dashboard details. {% endhint %} ### Performance Analytics The **Performance Analytics** dashboard provides detailed visibility into CDN responsiveness and regional performance. It includes: * Request time trends * Request time by country * Round Trip Time (RTT) * Datacenter-level performance * ASN-level traffic * Error ratios by datacenter Use this dashboard to investigate latency, compare delivery performance across locations, and determine whether a performance issue is isolated to a specific region or datacenter. {% hint style="info" %} Go to [**Performance Analytics**](/products/edgesight/analytics/your-dashboards/performance-analytics.md) for dashboard details. {% endhint %} ### HTTP & Cache Analytics The **HTTP & Cache Analytics** dashboard combines request-level traffic characteristics with aggregated cache behavior. It includes: * URL paths * Referers * Hosts * Cache status * Operating systems * Browsers * Device types Use this dashboard to understand which content is requested, where requests originate, and how effectively CDN edge servers serve requests from cache. {% hint style="info" %} Go to [**HTTP & Cache Analytics**](/products/edgesight/analytics/your-dashboards/http-analytics.md) for dashboard details. {% endhint %} ### Bot Analytics The **Bot Analytics** dashboard provides visibility into automated and bot-generated CDN traffic. It helps you analyze: * Bot request volume * Bot user agents * Requested content * Country distribution * Automated traffic patterns Use this dashboard to distinguish expected automated traffic, such as search engine crawlers, from bot activity that may require further investigation or traffic controls. {% hint style="info" %} Go to [**Bot Analytics**](/products/edgesight/analytics/your-dashboards/bot-analytics.md) for dashboard details. {% endhint %} ## Aggregated Data and Instant Logs Edgesight Analytics dashboards operate on **aggregated data**. Metrics such as counts, averages, and percentiles are calculated as logs arrive and stored using predefined dimensions. This architecture supports efficient analysis across long time ranges without querying individual request records. {% hint style="info" %} Edgesight Analytics and **Instant Logs** serve different use cases. Analytics provides aggregated, long-term views of CDN behavior. Instant Logs retains individual request records for request-level filtering, inspection, and export. {% endhint %} Because Analytics stores predefined aggregations, dashboards can only analyze dimensions included in their datasets. Data that was not stored as part of those aggregations cannot be reconstructed later. ## Retention and Granularity Each dashboard has independent **Retention** and **Granularity** settings. **Retention** determines how far back the dashboard can query its stored data.
DashboardDefault RetentionLongest AvailableDefault Granularity
Overview90 days360 days1 minute
Performance Analytics90 days360 days1 minute
HTTP & Cache Analytics30 days90 days5 minutes
Bot Analytics30 days90 days5 minutes
**Granularity** determines the time interval used when aggregated data is stored. Available intervals are: * **1 minute** * **5 minutes** * **1 hour** * **1 day** Finer granularity provides more detail for short-duration analysis. Coarser granularity reduces the resolution of stored data and is more suitable for longer time ranges. {% hint style="warning" %} Retention and granularity affect how data is stored and are not retroactive. Increasing retention does not restore data that has already been removed. Available retention also depends on your Edgesight Analytics plan. {% endhint %} ## Dashboard Controls Dashboard users can use Grafana controls to investigate the available data without modifying the underlying dashboards. Depending on the dashboard, users can: * Change the time range. * Zoom into a specific period. * Filter data using dashboard variables such as CDN source, host, or country. * Hover over panels to inspect exact values. * Export data from individual panels. Dashboard accounts cannot modify the predefined panels, queries, or dashboard layout. {% hint style="info" %} Preconfigured dashboards are managed by Medianova to maintain consistent metrics and visualization behavior across Edgesight Analytics workspaces. {% endhint %} For workspace users, access restrictions, and other management settings, see [**Access & Management**.](/products/edgesight/analytics/access-and-management.md) --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com. ## Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question. Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters: ``` GET https://clients.medianova.com/products/edgesight/analytics/your-dashboards.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
