How do I view eum data in application analytics?

You can view EUM data in Application Analytics if you have an Application Analytics license separate from the EUM licenses. The EUM data found in Application Analytics consists of event data and is stored in the Events Service. The EUM Analytics data visualized in widgets is also from the Events Service.

How does the eum server work?

The EUM Server inspects the beacons and applies rules based on the characteristics and content of the network requests. AppDynamics Agents collect load times for each resource on a web page and send the load times to the EUM Server.

What types of data does eum collect and store?

EUM collects, aggregates, and stores many different types of data that are displayed in different UI components of the Controller. Metrics are data that reflect your application's performance.

What is an eum Beacon?

When an AppDynamics Agent, or SDK instrumented code, detects an action in the browser or on a mobile or IoT device, it sends a beacon (a JSON file which contains keys and values) to the EUM Server. A beacon is a network request from an EUM agent that includes an agent ID and metadata about the events or activities that were reported.

Types of EUM Data

Metrics are data that reflect your application's performance. Browser RUM captures metrics using your end-users' web browsers such as timing and Ajax metrics. Mobile RUM captures metrics from mobile applications, such as crash metrics and network request metrics. You can view and analyze EUM metrics in the Metric Browser.

How Data Is Stored and Retrieved

Browser RUM data is stored in the Controller, the Events Service, and the EUM Server. The JavaScript Agent sends raw data to the EUM Server, where the data is verified, aggregated, and packaged every minute. The EUM Server then sends the data to the Controller and the Events Service.

Data Storage Details

The table below shows where different Browser RUM data is stored. To see how long the data is retained, see License Entitlements and Restrictions. Resource details are only available for those browser snapshots with resource timing.

Controller Mapping of Data

The table below shows the relationship between the Controller UI components and their data sources.

How to Access EUM Data

In addition to accessing EUM data through the Controller UI, you can also access EUM event data through Application Analytics and the AppDynamics APIs . The AppDynamics APIs include the Analytics Events API and the Metric and Snapshot API that you can use to access EUM metric data.

Data and Deployment Models

AppDynamics offers the two deployment models SaaS and on premises. You can access most Browser and Mobile RUM data from either deployment model.

Metrics are data that reflect your application's performance. Browser RUM captures metrics from browser applications, such as timing and Ajax metrics. Mobile RUM captures metrics from mobile applications, such as crash metrics and network request metrics. You can view and analyze EUM metrics in the Metric Browser.

Data Storage and Retrieval

AppDynamics uses four data storage components to store Browser RUM and Mobile RUM data: the EUM Server, the Events Service, the Metric Service, and the Controller. The Controller UI has no visibility into which storage component holds the data because it only interacts with the Controller API.

EUM and Analytics Events

In the AppDynamics model, each major service produces its own types of events. That includes services not relevant here such as Application Monitoring, Database Visibility, and Server Visibility.

How do Events flow through the system?

Demand on the EUM Server consists of the sum total of clicks and other actions that occur in browsers, or on mobile or IoT devices. We cannot limit that demand because we have no control over what flows into the EUM Server.

Beacons

A beacon is a network request from an EUM agent that includes an agent ID and metadata about the events or activities that were reported.

Resource Timing Snapshots

AppDynamics Agents collect load times for each resource on a web page and send the load times to the EUM Server. The EUM Server packages up a percentage of the page-load events as a Resource Timing Snapshot and sends that to Analytics. Analytics uses Resource Timing Snapshots to tell AppDynamics users which resources use the most time to load.

Performance considerations

For browser traffic, the more resources in a web page, the more CPU EUM processor uses.

Analytics Trade-offs

As you add new applications to your Analytics deployment, you can control resource consumption by making strategic trade-offs.

Installation Overview

The EUM Server receives data from EUM agents, processes and stores that data, and makes it available to the AppDynamics Controller.

Deployment Modes for the EUM Server

For demonstration and light testing purposes, choose the Demo installation option, where the EUM Server and Controller are installed on the same host, and the EUM Server shares the Controller's MySQL instance.

Embedded Geo Server

The EUM Server includes an embedded Geo Server that provides the geo information. The Geo Server either obtains geo information from your custom Geo Server or by resolving incoming IPv4 address (IPv6 addresses are not supported) with Neustar data or custom geo data.

Install the On-Premises Events Service

The Analyze function in Browser RUM and the Crash Report and Analyze components in Mobile RUM rely on the AppDynamics Events Service, the Platform's unstructured document store. The Events Service that is configured by default for EUM is a cloud-based service.

Run the EUM Server Installer

Before starting, get the installer version appropriate for your target system. You can get the installer from the AppDynamics download site .

Update the Agents

You must update the address that agents use to send their beacons to the EUM Server based on your configuration. For Browser Real User Monitoring, the Controller updates the JavaScript agent. Simply re-download and deploy it, as described in Set Up and Configure Browser RUM.

Start and Stop the EUM Server and Database

The EUM Server is installed as a Windows service automatically. You can manage how you want this service to run using the Local Services dialog.

Requirements

Before starting, download the installer distribution and extract it on the target machine. You obtain the EUM installer from the AppDynamics Download Center .

Install the EUM Server for a Production Deployment with the GUI Installer

Run the on-premises EUM installer on the machine on which you want to install the EUM Server.

Post-Installation Tasks

To complete the AppDynamics EUM Server installation, you must perform these additional post-installation tasks (as shown in the last AppDynamics End User Monitoring Setup Wizard screen):

Configure JVM Options

Update the JVM options in the $APPDYNAMICS_HOME\EUM\eum-processor\bin\eum-processor-launcher.vmoptions file.

Connect the EUM Server with the AppDynamics Controller

eum.cloud.host: http://eum-host-name:7001 – Location where the Controller will poll for EUM metrics.

Installing with the Silent Installer

Instead of using the GUI installer, you can use the silent installer to perform an unattended installation. The silent installer uses a response file as a source for the initial configuration settings. It's useful for scripting installation or performing large scale deployments.
