    Key Features

    • Events Metrics:
      • Processed: Reflects the number of events processed.
      • Logged: Indicates the number of events logged.
    • ECC Queue Metrics:
      • Ready on Output: Average entries in the Ready state for the ECC output queue.
      • Ready on Input: Average entries in the Ready state for the ECC input queue.
      • Processing on Output: Average entries in the Processing state for the ECC output queue.
      • Processing on Input: Average entries in the Processing state for the ECC input queue.
      • Processed on Output: Average entries in the Processed state for the ECC output queue.
      • Processed on Input: Average entries in the Processed state for the ECC input queue.
    • Session Information Metrics:
      • Average Transaction Response Time: Average processing time for transactions.
      • Transaction Count: Load of transactions on the instance.
      • Logged in Users: Number of users logged into the instance over time.
      • Semaphore Metrics: Various metrics related to queue depths and rejections for API integrations and AMB queues.
      • Average Database Response Time: Average response time for database operations.
      • Database Throughput: Transactions processed per second.

    Key Outcomes

    By utilizing these detail graphs and metrics, ServiceNow customers can effectively monitor their instance's performance, identify bottlenecks, and make informed decisions to optimize transaction processing and overall system health. Understanding these metrics allows for proactive management and enhanced service delivery.

    The Application Insights detail graphs provide views of individual metrics at the node level.
