4.2 Understanding Dashboards
The main console shows information about the milestone performance of an integration application. For example, once the model of the application has been created and activated, business owners can identify bottlenecks in the application and track key metrics immediately and in real time.
The default dashboards are also known as Milestone Dashboards as they show metrics based on milestones defined in the model. These dashboards display the aggregate state of the business model based on milestones alone. To see the aggregate state of the model’s indicators, you need to create custom dashboards.
The status area is a collapsible section of the Dashboards page that always displays the last time the model changed to/from active/inactive state. This area also displays the search tool. You can see the model's icon, model description, and the descriptions for Single and Multiple Instances (that were defined while creating the model).
