Creating a Metric

You can manage all business metrics, including the metric sources and definitions. Business metrics are stored in directories.

Metrics in DataArts Quality are independent of business metrics and technical metrics in DataArts Architecture.

Prerequisites

You have created a home directory. To create a home directory, log in to the DataArts Studio console, click Access under a specific instance, choose More > DataArts Quality on the Workspaces tab page, choose Metric Monitoring > Metric Management from the left navigation bar on the page displayed, and create a directory. Before creating a metric for a data connection, select a directory to store the metric. For details, see Figure 1.

    NOTE:

    If DLI is selected as the data connection, a running queue is required.
