Service Monitoring

You can view the following information on the Service Monitoring page:

  • CDN Downstream Bandwidth/Traffic: downstream bandwidth or traffic usage of streaming domain names, that is, the downstream bandwidth or traffic used by clients to pull streams from CDN
  • CDN Status Codes: all status codes returned by CDN in response to the stream pull requests by Media Live, and the trend chart of these status codes
  • CDN Concurrent Downstream Requests: downstream concurrent requests of the streaming domain name, that is, the downstream concurrent requests by the client to pull streams from CDN
  • Transcoding Metrics: including Input bandwidth, Input video frame rate, Input disconnections, Dropped packets, Input switches for failover, Continuity errors, PID errors, Dropped frames, Duration of input without received packets, and Output bandwidth, and the trend charts of these metrics
  • Packaging Metrics: including 2xx status codes, 4xx status codes, 5xx status codes, HLS requests, DASH requests, MSS requests, Input traffic, and Output traffic, and the trend charts for these metrics

Notes

Bandwidth/Bitrate is counted by 1,000 (example: 1 Mbit/s = 1,000 Kbit/s) and traffic by 1,024 (example: 1 MB = 1,024 KB).

Procedure

  1. Log in to the Live console.
  2. In the navigation pane on the left, choose Service Monitoring under Media Live.
  3. Select CDN Downstream Bandwidth/Traffic, CDN Status Codes, CDN Concurrent Downstream Requests, Transcoding Metrics, or Packaging Metrics to view the statistics.

    Move the cursor to the trend chart and scroll the mouse wheel to zoom in or zoom out the X axis (time).

CDN Downstream Bandwidth/Traffic

  • You can query data of the past 90 days.
  • You can query data in a time span of up to 31 days.
  • You can query data about up to 20 domain names at a time.
  • The minimum statistical granularity is 5 minutes. For example, data generated from November 6, 2020 08:00:00 (GMT+08:00) to November 6, 2020 08:04:59 (GMT+08:00) is displayed at the statistical point November 6, 2020 08:00:00 (GMT+08:00). The displayed data is the maximum value in the period of the selected granularity.
  • Constraints on the statistical granularity: If the query time span is no longer than 2 days, the Every 1 day granularity is not supported. If the query time span is longer than 2 days and no longer than 7 days, the Every 5 minutes granularity is not supported. If the query time span is longer than 7 days, only the Every 1 day granularity is supported.
Select the desired time, streaming domain name, area, and statistical granularity. Click Bandwidth or Traffic on the right of the page to view the bandwidth or traffic usage trend.
  • Bandwidth Usage Trend displays the bandwidth usage trend of the selected domain name, as shown in Figure 1. Downstream Bandwidth: 2.00 Mbit/s indicates the downstream peak bandwidth of the selected domain name in the query period.
    Figure 1 CDN downstream bandwidth statistics
  • Traffic Usage Trend displays the traffic usage trend of the selected domain name, as shown in Figure 2. Downstream Traffic: 2.50 GB indicates the traffic consumed by the selected domain name in the query period.
    The total traffic displayed in the trend chart is the sum of traffic measured every 5 minutes and converted from bytes into MB, accurate to two decimal places.

CDN Status Codes

  • You can query data of the past 90 days.
  • You can query data in a time span of up to 31 days.
  • You can query data about up to 20 domain names at a time.
  • The minimum statistical granularity is 5 minutes. For example, data generated from November 6, 2020 08:00:00 (GMT+08:00) to November 6, 2020 08:04:59 (GMT+08:00) is displayed at the statistical point November 6, 2020 08:00:00 (GMT+08:00). The displayed data is the maximum value in the period of the selected granularity.
  • Constraints on the statistical granularity: If the query time span is no longer than 2 days, the Every 1 day granularity is not supported. If the query time span is longer than 2 days and no longer than 7 days, the Every 5 minutes granularity is not supported. If the query time span is longer than 7 days, only the Every 1 day granularity is supported.

You can specify the time, streaming domain name, area, statistical granularity, and status code to view the trend chart of the corresponding status code, as shown in Figure 3.

The trend chart shows the number of status codes returned by CDN in response to the stream pull requests by Media Live.

CDN Concurrent Downstream Requests

  • You can query data of the past 90 days.
  • You can query data in a time span of up to 31 days.
  • You can query data about up to 20 domain names at a time.
  • The minimum statistical granularity is 5 minutes. For example, data generated from November 6, 2020 08:00:00 (GMT+08:00) to November 6, 2020 08:04:59 (GMT+08:00) is displayed at the statistical point November 6, 2020 08:00:00 (GMT+08:00). The displayed data is the maximum value in the period of the selected granularity.
  • Constraints on the statistical granularity: If the query time span is no longer than 2 days, the Every 1 day granularity is not supported. If the query time span is longer than 2 days and no longer than 7 days, the Every 5 minutes granularity is not supported. If the query time span is longer than 7 days, only the Every 1 day granularity is supported.

You can specify the time, streaming domain name, area, and statistical granularity to view the trend chart of the corresponding downstream concurrent requests.

The trend chart shows the number of downstream concurrent requests by the client to pull streams from CDN.

Transcoding Metrics

  • You can query data of the past 90 days.
  • You can query data in a time span of up to 30 days.
  • The minimum statistical granularity of Transcoding Metrics is 1 minute. For example, data generated from November 6, 2020 08:00:00 (GMT+08:00) to November 6, 2020 08:00:59 (GMT+08:00) is displayed at the statistical point November 6, 2020 08:00:00 (GMT+08:00). The displayed data is the maximum value in the period of the selected granularity.
Select the time, channel name, transcoding metric names (Input bandwidth, Input video frame rate, Input disconnections, Dropped packets, Input switches for failover, Continuity errors, PID errors, Dropped frames, Duration of input without received packets, and Output bandwidth), and statistical granularity to view the trend chart of the selected transcoding metrics.

Packaging Metrics

  • You can query data of the past 90 days.
  • You can query data in a time span of up to 30 days.

For example, data generated from November 6, 2020 08:00:00 (GMT+08:00) to November 6, 2020 08:00:59 (GMT+08:00) is displayed at the statistical point November 6, 2020 08:00:00 (GMT+08:00). The displayed data is the maximum value in the period of the selected granularity.
Select the time, channel name, packaging metric names (2xx status codes, 4xx status codes, 5xx status codes, HLS requests, DASH requests, MSS requests, Input traffic, and Output traffic), and statistical granularity to view the trend chart of the selected packaging metrics.
