About Insights

Introduction

Insights is a web application that serves as a platform for data modeling and analytics using a combination of available business metrics and operational insights. With pre-loaded dashboard Templates as well as user-defined dashboards to visualize company data across desired metrics, it enables you to discover new analytical insights, track performance indicators, and be alerted of errors.

The Insights homepage displays all available dashboards to which the user has access. By default, all users have access to the Robots,Processes, and Queues Templates that are included with the product. The Business ROI template will be locked unless the administrator has added data to the ROI dataset, and the appropriate permissions are granted to a user. Each dashboard can be copied and customized, as well as downloaded in various formats.

Data Ingestion for Insights

When you enable Insights on a tenant, any historical data that is present in the Orchestrator database will be ingested and available in Insights within a few minutes.

Following this initial setup, new data from Orchestrator will be ingested approximately every 20 minutes. Robot logs will also be ingested approximately every 20 minutes. Note that all Robot logs will be ingested, not only the last records and error logs.

Note: Data that has been ingested into Insights is historical and cannot be modified, so if changes are made on Orchestrator to processes, queues, or robots (ie. changing the name), that will not affect existing data.

System Throughput

To measure system performance, you can view throughput baseline details referring to the following entities that are created and processed during a time interval:

• Queue Item Event: Events related to the creation, deletion, or status change of a queue item. Around 140,000 are processed daily, with an average of 100/minute.
• Job Events: Events related to the creation, deletion, or status change of a job. Around 140,000 are processed daily, with an average of 100/minute.
• Robot Logs: INFO level logs and above generated by Robots. Around 550,000 are processed daily, with an average of 400/minute.

Important: During burst throughput, the number of entities that are created and processed can reach up to three times over baseline.

Selecting the User Language

The Insights language must be selected via that tenants' Orchestrator tenant settings. All users in that tenant share the same language.
