This topic describes the custom statistics feature provided by Application Real-Time Monitoring Service (ARMS) Browser Monitoring.
To help you monitor and collect lightweight business interaction behaviors, Browser Monitoring provides the following types of custom statistics:
-
Sum statistics: calculates the total number of occurrences for some events, such as the number of times that a button is clicked and the number of times that a module is loaded.
-
Average statistics: calculates the average values for some events, such as the average loading time of a module.
ARMS provides the following dimensions for the preceding types of custom statistics. Average statistics are used in this example.
- Statistics details
The statistics details line chart shows the trends of the average values and the size of samples for an event within a specified period of time. Assume that the time consumption data of a module is collected. In the statistics details, you can view the average time consumption data and the size of sent samples in the corresponding period of time.
- PV/UV
In the PV/UV line chart, you can view the PV and UV statistics of the event within a specified period of time.
- Geographical view
Statistics on the event are collected by province or city in the Chinese mainland, and by country or region worldwide. Browser Monitoring provides the reported amount, average value, and unique visitor (UV) data of each region. This helps you learn about the differences between events in different regions and make decisions.
- Terminal view
Browsers, devices, operating systems, and resolutions may affect the performance, compatibility, and display of a page. Browser Monitoring provides the average values and sample sizes in these dimensions. This helps you analyze the distribution of the event in different browsers, devices, operating systems, and resolutions.
API method for sum statistics
After the Browser Monitoring SDK is introduced on the page, use the following log reporting API method in the JavaScript file for sum statistics:
Request parameter: __bl.sum(key, value)
Description
| Parameter | Type | Description | Required | Default value |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| key | String | The name of the event. | Yes | None |
| value | Number | The cumulative number in each report. Default value: 1. | No | 1 |
Example:
__bl.sum('event-a');
__bl.sum('event-b', 3);API method for average value statistics
After the Browser Monitoring SDK is introduced on the page, use the following log reporting API method in the JavaScript file for average value statistics:
Request parameter: __bl.avg(key, value)
Description
| Parameter | Type | Description | Required | Default value |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| key | String | The name of the event. | Yes | None |
| value | Number | The number of reported items. Default value: 0. | No | 0 |
Example:
__bl.avg('event-a', 1);
__bl.avg('event-b', 3);
