The real-time monitoring feature allows you to monitor the metrics of stream ingest and playback, such as the traffic, bandwidth, and status. This topic describes how to view the monitoring metrics in the ApsaraVideo Live console.
Background information
The real-time monitoring feature collects data on different monitoring items at intervals ranging from 5 seconds to 1 minute. The interval for real-time monitoring differs from that for operational analysis and usage queries. Therefore, the data collected for different purposes may be inconsistent in the same period. You are charged for ApsaraVideo Live based on the usage statistics.
The data availability and maximum time range per query vary based on the monitoring item. For details, see the table below.
