Dynamic Aggregation Configuration Overview

Standard aggregation processing uses specific algorithms configured to work with a specified set of dimensions. For example, the base package Service Type and Postal aggregation uses specific algorithms for dimension scanning and finding constituent measuring components.

In contrast, dynamic aggregation uses dynamic queries for the dimension scanning, find constituents, and aggregation processes. These dynamic queries are based on configuration of administrative data, including:

Data Sources define the source of data to be aggregated, such as measurement data from usage subscriptions linked to a service point, badged or unbadged items, or other sources of data.
Aggregation Measuring Component Types define the most important properties of aggregation measuring components used to store aggregated data.
Aggregation Groups define the ordering of a series of related aggregations and the schedule of aggregation.
Measuring Component Sets define the dimensions and criteria by which aggregation will be performed.
