Events and Dimensions

This topic provides an overview description of the events and dimensions in AquaLogic Analytics.

An event is a record of an action, typically a user action, that has been captured by the Analytics Collector Service. For example, portletUses is an event that is captured every time a portlet is used on the AquaLogic Interaction portal.

Each event includes associated data. The portletUses event has data about the portlet, the portal community the portlet was accessed from, and the user's browser. The specifics of each of these (the portlet name, the browser version) are called properties, while the groupings of data (portlet, community, browser) are called dimensions.
