What reports are for

Using reports to analyze NetCache log files

ContentReporter is a software tool for collecting, analyzing, and reporting on NetCache log files. These files contain large amounts of streaming and web access information on almost every aspect of the files, data, and media accessed on a NetCache. You can analyze content usage, performance, and infrastructure loads across one or more NetCache appliances with ContentReporter reports.

Examples of reports

The following are some examples of NetCache report information you can include in a report:

Client usage reports can help you identify which types of files are most frequently requested
These types of reports will help you:
- Understanding who's accessing what data (security)
- Understanding who's watching which streaming events
File usage reports can help you:
- Understand where best to pre-populate data
- Understand how often content is viewed
- Provide data for departmental charge back
Cache performance reports can help you understand how to provision and grow your infrastructure by determining what parts of the network are stressed by growth or activity.
