The Case Monitor workbench
objects gather and assemble the business data for display in Case Monitor dashboard objects:
- Data stream
- A Case Monitor data
stream can be thought of as a query that uses an agent, such as Java
Database Connectivity (JDBC), to retrieve data from the Case Analyzer database at a specified
polling interval. Each data stream selects data from a Case Analyzer table for a specific purpose.
The retrieved data is held in memory in a data stream table of the
name specified for the data stream. See Agents for instructions about configuring
an agent that is appropriate for your system.
- View
- A Case Monitor view
extracts data from the Case Monitor data
stream and optionally other views to assemble the business model that
you want to monitor.
- Cube
- A Case Monitor cube
combines the view data with the measures and dimensions.
- Lookup table
- A Case Monitor lookup
table provides meaningful reference information related to a Case Monitor data stream. Lookup
table information is relatively static. Like a Case Monitor data stream, a lookup
table uses an agent to retrieve data from the Case Analyzer database.
- Dimension
- A dimension is a ranked order of classifications that, from highest
to lowest level, describe decreasingly smaller sets of related data
in a Case Monitor lookup
table.
The following sections list
the workbench objects and data stream queries for monitoring current
data and for monitoring recent historical data.
