[aerogear-dev] [UPS] UI for Sent Push stats

[Jay Balunas]

Wanted to chime in here.  The overall goal of the metrics/stats imo, is around letting developers/administrators know what is happening with the server.  Messages in/out, registrations, etc....  This will also help new developers see activity and do some basic debugging if devices fail to register or messages fail to send.  

Maybe in the future we'll get into more analytics, resource usage type stuff but for Mobile Push 1.0 I think this is overkill.  For example I would not expect us to store this data over 30 days or so, and have viewing options like "last hour", "last 24 hours", "yesterday", "last 7 days", etc...

Building on what Matthias posted below, here are some breakdowns of stats we could/should track:

Registration:
-- Device registered with [x,y,z] metadata
-- Device removed with [x,y,z] metadata 

Messages:
-- Push request <timestamp-id> received from [ip] with [x,y,z] metadata
-- Push request <timestamp-id> matched XYZ devices and sent [ AB: APNS, CD GCM, etc...]
-- Push request <timestamp-id> had foo errors : details

These would all have app and variant info as part of the metadata so they can filtered/broken down as needed.

This should give us a great base for all kinds of table and chart views.
-- Registrations over time for the server, specific app, specific variant
-- Messages over time for the server, specific app, specific variant
-- Table of the above if feasible :-)

Obviously we may need to scale down as needed, and discuss more, but this is what I was thinking about.

Thoughts?

We may have have several entry points to the logs, and an overview of some statistics can be useful as a landing page before going into "Applications".
