Edge Performance Analytic Fields

Applies To:

HTTP LargeThis platform has been optimized to cache and deliver static content (e.g., HTML, CSS, JavaScript, ISO, multimedia, and software downloads, etc.) over HTTP or HTTPS.

HTTP SmallLegacy. If you are currently serving traffic over this platform, then you may continue to do so. However, we recommend that you serve your traffic over our more robust HTTP Large platform.

ADNThe Application Delivery Network platform has been optimized to deliver dynamic content (e.g., login credentials, account information, etc.) over HTTP or HTTPS. Typically, user-specific and database-driven content are served over this platform.

AnalyticsThis product provides a variety of reports that range from basic CDN usage statistics to real-time data to in-depth trend analysis on key metrics. This suite consists of the following modules: Core, Custom, Advanced Content Analytics, Real-Time Statistics, and Edge Performance Analytics. - Edge Performance Analytics

The fields included in Edge Performance Analytics reports are defined in this section.

Common Fields

The majority of the Edge Performance Analytics reports have many fields in common. Although these reports share many of the same fields, the data that will be reported for those fields will vary according to the type of report. For example, the Daily Summary report provides statistical information for each day included in the report. This means that the statistics returned for that report will only be for a particular date. Likewise, the Origins report provides statistical information for each customer origin server that served traffic over a specified time period. For this report, field data will be restricted to the traffic served on each customer origin.

Both request/response headers and bodies are included when calculating fields that involve the transfer of data.

Field	Description
Hits	Indicates the total number of requests for CDN content that correspond to the criteria specified in the report's first column (e.g., Day, Hour, Protocol, etc.). For the purposes of this field, a hit occurs whenever CDN content is requested, regardless of the status code returned to the client.
Percentage	Indicates the percentage of requests that correspond to the criteria specified in the report's first column (e.g., Day, Hour, Protocol, etc.). This field is a percentage of the total requests that occurred over the time span covered by the report.
Ave Bytes Out	Indicates the average amount of data that was sent from our edge servers to HTTP clients (i.e., web browsers). This average value is calculated solely from the requests that correspond to the criteria specified in the report's first column (e.g., Day, Hour, Protocol, etc.).
Total Bytes Out	Indicates the total amount of data, in bytes, that was sent from edge servers to HTTP clients. This sum is calculated solely from the requests that correspond to the criteria specified in the report's first column (e.g., Day, Hour, Protocol, etc.).
Ave Bytes In	Indicates the average amount of data, in bytes, that was sent from HTTP clients (i.e., web browsers) to edge servers. This average value is calculated solely from the requests that correspond to the criteria specified in the report's first column (e.g., Day, Hour, Protocol, etc.).
Total Bytes In	Indicates the total amount of data, in bytes, sent from HTTP clients (i.e., web browsers) to edge servers. This sum is calculated solely from the requests that correspond to the criteria specified in the report's first column (e.g., Day, Hour, Protocol, etc.).
Ave Bytes Remote	Indicates the average amount of data, in bytes, that was sent from CDN and customer origin servers to edge servers. This average value is calculated solely from the requests that correspond to the criteria specified in the report's first column (e.g., Day, Hour, Protocol, etc.).
Total Bytes Remote	Indicates the total amount of data, in bytes, received from CDN and customer origin servers by edge servers. This sum is calculated solely from the requests that correspond to the criteria specified in the report's first column (e.g., Day, Hour, Protocol, etc.).
Transfer Rate	Indicates the rate (e.g., Gigabits per second, Megabits per second, Kilobits per second, etc.) at which edge servers delivered content to HTTP clients (i.e., web browsers). This rate is calculated solely from the requests that correspond to the criteria specified in the report's first column (e.g., Day, Hour, Protocol, etc.).
Duration	Indicates the average amount of time, in milliseconds, that it took our CDN to serve an asset to a client. This average value is calculated solely from the requests that correspond to the criteria specified in the report's first column (e.g., Day, Hour, Protocol, etc.).

All Fields

This section describes all fields used by the reports in the Edge Performance Analytics module.

Ave Bytes Out	View definition.
Ave Bytes Remote	View definition.
Cache Status	This field lists the different types of cache statuses returned by the report.
Client Request Type	This field lists the types of requests generated by clients for your CDN account. The type of request that will be generated by a client is determined by the header information (e.g., If-Modified-Since or Cache-Control: no-cache) included with the request for the asset. The types of client requests that are tracked are: normal, refresh, revalidation, and revalidation + refresh.
Client	This field lists the IP addresses for the top 100 clients to request content from your CDN account.
CName	This field lists the CNAMEs for which CDN activity took place during the time period covered by the report. This field includes all edge CNAMEs and the CDN hostname (e.g., wpc.0001.{Base Domain}). The CDN hostname is included in this list, since it is a CNAME to a server on our network. Variations in the hostname (i.e., due to case or port) will cause a separate entry to be listed in this field.
Compression Type	This field lists the type of compression used to deliver an asset to a client. The available compression types are bzip2, deflate, gzip, not compressible, and uncompressed.
Day	Indicates the date (Format: YYYY-MM-DDIdentifies a date (e.g., 2024-07-08). This date is determined according to the UTC/GMT time zone.) for which data is being reported.
Duration	View definition.
File Name	Indicates the CDN URL path to an asset. The CDN URL path always starts with the content access point (e.g., /000001/). The content access point starts directly after the CDN hostname (e.g., wpc.0001.{Base Domain}). For the purposes of this field, edge CNAME URLs are converted to their equivalent CDN URLs. This allows an accurate tally for all statistics associated with an asset regardless of the CDN or edge CNAME URL used to request it.
File Type	This field lists the file extension (e.g., .swf, .png, .mp4, etc.) and the media type associated with the requested content. This field is formatted as follows: .ext [MediaType].
Geo POP	Indicates the three-letter abbreviation for each POP that handled CDN traffic.
Hits	View definition.
Hour	This field lists each hour contained within the Hourly report. Format: YYYY-MM-DD hh:mmIdentifies a date and time (UTC/GMT) using a 24 hour format (e.g., 2024-07-08 15:00).
HTTP Method	This field lists the HTTP request methods used to request CDN content. The most common HTTP request methods for this report are GET, HEAD, and POST.
HTTP Response Code	This field lists the HTTP response codes (e.g., 200, 403, 404, etc.) that were returned in response to a request for CDN content.
Origin	This field lists the CDN or customer origin servers that hosted CDN content that was requested.
Percentage	View definition.
Protocol	This field lists each protocol (i.e., HTTP or HTTPS) used to request CDN content.
Referrer	This field lists the top 100 referrers that your clients used to request CDN content. A referrer indicates the URL from which a request was generated. This information is typically stored in an HTTP request header. A dash (-) referrer indicates that the content was hit directly, the referrer was stripped out by the user agent, or the referrer was not passed through the HTTP header.
Response Type	Indicates a Token-Based Authentication status code. This status code indicates how a request for an asset was handled by Token-Based Authentication.
Total Bytes In	View definition.
Total Bytes Out	View definition.
Total Bytes Remote	View definition.
Total Bytes	Indicates the total amount of data transferred for the first instance of each unique asset on that date.
Transfer Rate	View definition.
Unique Files	Indicates the total number of unique assets that were requested on a particular date. The URL used to access the asset determines whether an asset is unique. If query-string caching has been enabled, then the query string will also be taken into account when determining whether an asset is unique. For the purposes of this field, edge CNAME URLs are converted to their equivalent CDN URLs. This allows an accurate tally for all statistics associated with an asset regardless of the CDN or edge CNAME URL used to request it.
URL	Indicates the CDN URL path to an asset. The CDN URL path always starts with the content access point. The content access point starts directly after the CDN hostname (e.g., wpc.0001.{Base Domain}) in a CDN URL. The relative path in the following sample CDN URL is indicated in bold, blue font. http://wpc.0001.edgecastcdn.net/800001/videos/video01.mp4 For the purposes of this field, edge CNAME URLs are converted to their equivalent CDN URLs. This allows an accurate tally for all statistics associated with an asset regardless of the CDN or edge CNAME URL used to request it.
User Agent	Indicates the user agents through which CDN content was requested. Typically, this field will indicate the web browser and version used by the client to request CDN content. Each unique combination of web browser and version number is considered a different user agent.
