6.5.1 Creating New Metrics

To create a new metric:

1. Login to STSA.
   The Workspace Summary page is displayed.
2. In the Workspace Summary, Sandbox tab, launch the required workspace.
3. Click Building Blocks and under the Metrics tile, click View.
   The Metrics Summary page is displayed.
4. Click Create a new Metric.
   The Metrics Definition page is displayed.
5. In the Name field, provide a name for the metric.
6. In the Description field, provide a description for the metric.
7. In the Metrics Output section:
   1. Select the mapped output glossary term (created in Data Catalog) from the Logical Reference drop-down menu. After you select the output glossary term, the system retrieves the pipelines mapped to that term.
   2. Select an aggregation rule (to map various metrics outputs to a common scale) for the metrics output from the Aggregation rule drop-down menu.
      To aggregate the results, you can select one of the following options:

      • Minimum - computes and shows the Minimum of average values across time periods value of the all the metric.
      • Maximum - computes and shows the Maximum of average values across time periods value of the metric.
      • Sum - computes and shows the sum of the metric.
      • Average - computes and shows the average value of the metric.

      The Pipeline mappings for the metric (which shows the process/model associated) are displayed in the Metrics Details page.

8. To save the metric and continue later, click Save.
9. To submit the metric for review, click Submit for Review.
