Month by Data Source

The Monthly Traffic by Data Source view provides a comprehensive visualization of message traffic patterns across your integration landscape over time. This view helps you analyze traffic trends, identify peak usage periods, and understand the relative activity levels of different integration platforms.

Navigate to Reporting → Traffic → Month by Data Source to access the monthly traffic analysis by data source.

Purpose

Track message volume trends across different data sources over time to identify usage patterns, seasonal variations, and platform-specific traffic characteristics for capacity planning and performance optimization.

Monthly Traffic Overview

Monthly Traffic by Data Source displays message traffic data in both visual and tabular formats, allowing you to analyze traffic patterns across multiple integration platforms simultaneously.

*Monthly Traffic by Data Source chart showing traffic trends over time with multiple colored lines representing different data sources, including filters for Data Source and Environment*

What you see:

Line chart visualization showing message count trends over time (monthly intervals)
Multiple data source lines with different colors representing various integration platforms
Data Source filter to select specific platforms for analysis
Environment filter to switch between configured environment views (e.g. Production, Test, Development, Quality)
Interactive legend showing all available data sources with color coding
Chart controls for fullscreen view, table display and export options

Using Traffic Analysis

The traffic visualization provides detailed insights into message volume patterns:

Chart Analysis:

Traffic trends:

Peak periods → Identify months with highest message volumes
Seasonal patterns → Recognize recurring traffic cycles across different platforms
Platform comparison → Compare relative traffic volumes between data sources
Growth trends → Track traffic evolution over the analysis period

Data source identification:

Color-coded lines → Each integration platform has a unique color
Interactive legend → Shows all available data sources (e.g. CPI_EU, WPO, ABAP_CPI, ALM, etc.)
Platform-specific patterns → Different data sources show distinct traffic characteristics

Filtering and Customization

Data Source Filter:

Multiple selection → Select one or more data sources for focused analysis
Single platform focus → Choose individual platforms (e.g. CPI_EU only) for detailed trend analysis
Platform comparison → Select specific platforms to compare their traffic patterns
All platforms view → Display comprehensive landscape traffic overview

*Monthly Traffic chart filtered to show single data source (CPI_EU) with simplified visualization focusing on one platform's traffic pattern*

Environment Filter:

Production → Focus on live system traffic patterns
Development → Analyze development environment activity
Test/Quality → Review testing environment usage
Custom environments → View traffic for organization-specific environment classifications
