Frequency
The Frequency view measures how actively your interfaces are being used by analyzing execution frequency over the past 30 days. Use this analysis to identify high-traffic business-critical interfaces, detect underused or inactive interfaces and plan resources based on actual usage patterns.
Navigate to Reporting → Frequency to access interface activity analytics with interactive pie chart visualization and filtering capabilities.

Frequency Overview
Frequency measures how often each interface is executed within the monitored period (past 30 days), providing a quick overview of runtime activity across your integration landscape.
Frequency interface showing interfaces distributed across Low (140), Medium (47), High (12) and Very High (8) categories with hoverable pie chart
What you see:
Interface distribution table with frequency categories and clickable blue count numbers
Interactive pie chart with hoverable segments showing exact counts
Data Source filter to analyze specific integration platforms
Environment filter to switch between Production, Test, Development views
Using Frequency Categories
Frequency classification automatically categorizes interfaces into four levels based on message volume over the past 30 days:
Frequency Level | Description | Business Impact |
|---|---|---|
Low | Minimal execution activity | May indicate limited business relevance or outdated use |
Medium | Moderate activity levels | Standard operational interfaces |
High | Frequent execution | Active business processes requiring attention |
Very High | Highest activity levels | Business-critical interfaces needing extra monitoring |
How to use the interface counts:
Click blue interface count numbers to filter and view specific interfaces:
Click "140" (Low) → Shows minimally used interfaces that may need review for decommissioning
Click "47" (Medium) → Displays moderately active interfaces for standard monitoring
Click "12" (High) → Lists frequently used interfaces requiring performance attention
Click "8" (Very High) → Shows business-critical interfaces needing enhanced monitoring
Interactive pie chart features:
Hover over segments to see exact interface counts (e.g. "Low: 140")
Click pie chart segments for same filtering as blue numbers
Click legend items (Low, Medium, High, Very High) to strike out and filter out those categories from the view
Visual distribution shows activity balance across your landscape
Navigation workflow:
Assess activity distribution - Use pie chart hover to see exact counts per frequency level
Investigate high-activity interfaces - Click blue numbers "12" (High) and "8" (Very High) first
Review low-activity interfaces - Click "140" (Low) to identify candidates for decommissioning
Monitor critical interfaces - Focus on Very High frequency interfaces for performance optimization
What to Look For
Ideal distribution: Balanced mix across frequency levels with clear identification of business-critical (Very High) and potentially unused (Low) interfaces.
High low-frequency concentration: Many Low frequency interfaces suggest potential for landscape cleanup and decommissioning efforts.
Recommended actions:
Low frequency interfaces: Review for business relevance, consider decommissioning inactive interfaces
Very High frequency interfaces: Implement enhanced monitoring, performance tuning, and robust error handling
Activity patterns:
Very High interfaces typically require custom alert thresholds and infrastructure scaling
Low frequency interfaces should be reviewed with other KPIs (Complexity, Decommissioning) to determine retirement candidates
Use frequency data to align operational monitoring with business-critical traffic patterns
Frequency Calculation Details:
Frequency classification is calculated using live traffic data over the past 30 days and updated regularly to reflect current usage patterns. The classification helps to:
Identify high-traffic, business-critical interfaces that require extra monitoring or safeguards
Prioritize monitoring and alerting coverage for high-frequency flows
Detect underused or inactive interfaces that may be outdated or no longer needed
Plan resources and capacity (scaling, performance tuning) based on interface load
