Site Activity Features

Configurable Extra Data collection fields– Cookie Value – according to cookie name– HTTP Header Value – according to header name– URL Request Parameter – according to parameter name

Built-In Session ID and Request ID (GUIDs)

Runtime override capabilities - Field/Parameter values

Extra Fields Data Can be filled according to configuration or at runtime.

Extra Fields – Configuration (header / cookie / request)<!-- extra fields source (1-5) - cookie / header / request_param --><add key="SiteActivityModules_Field_1_Source" value="cookie: MyCookie"/><add key="SiteActivityModules_Field_2_Source" value=“header: MyHeader"/>

Extra Fields – filled at runtime// context = HttpContext.Current.Contextcontext.Items["Performance Monitor -> Field 1"] = “Value 1"; context.Items["Performance Monitor -> Field 2"] = “Value 2";

Wizards Analysis Sample// Fill Extra Fields Data – For Creating Wizard Analysis Reportcontext.Items["Performance Monitor -> Field 1"] = “WIZARD"; // Type = Wizard context.Items["Performance Monitor -> Field 2"] = “Wizard #1"; // Wizard Namecontext.Items["Performance Monitor -> Field 3"] = “1"; // Wizard Step Number

Requests Filtering Filter what Requests (URLs) would be recorded.

Page Types Filtering (include & exclude rules)<!-- monitored page types --><add key="SiteActivityModules_PageTypes" value=".aspx ; .asmx"/><add key="SiteActivityModules_PageTypesExclude" value=".css ; .js"/>

URL Templates Filtering (any part of url string)<!-- filter urls that include/exclude templates (xxx ; yyy ; zzz) --><add key="SiteActivityModules_UrlsInclude" value="page2.aspx ; …"/><add key="SiteActivityModules_UrlsExclude" value="page3.aspx ; …"/>

Requests Filtering – at runtimecontext.Items["Performance Monitor -> Page Is Monitored"] = false;

User Activity Analysis Report that shows all Requests of a specific User.

Unique Pages Analysis Report that shows Unique Page Visits. Support Unique Count For:

– All Requests Count– Unique Requests For Session– Unique Requests For User

Performance - Configuration Examples

Requests Process Time Filtering<!-- filter only requests between Min-Max process time (milliseconds) --><add key="SiteActivityModules_MinProcessTimeToCapture" value="0"/><add key="SiteActivityModules_MaxProcessTimeToCapture" value="1000"/>

Performance - Configuration ExamplesEnable On Screen Display (Off / On – by parameter / Always On)<!-- on screen diplay of page request information--><add key="SiteActivityModules_OnScreenDisplay" value="0"/>

Example of data showed on page:Site Activity Monitor - Request Information:Begin Request|Start Page Monitor|203|634954898520043462| ; milliseconds from last action = 0SQL Call | SQL Activity #4 | 180 | 634954898522303591 | ; milliseconds from last action = 226Service Call | WCF Call | 140 | 634954898523703671 | ; milliseconds from last action = 140Service Call | Web Service Call | 150 | 634954898525203757 | ; milliseconds from last action = 150SQL Call | SQL Activity #5 | 180 | 634954898527503889 | ; milliseconds from last action = 230End Request|Finish Page Monitor|998|634954898528023919| ; milliseconds from last action = 52

Code Examples This example is for Reporting a Custom Action for a Page.

Can be Reported from any code (site, referenced dlls…) that contains Request’s HttpContext

Report Action – From Anywhere with HTTP Context Available// Action data format: // context = HttpContext.Current.Context// Action Type | Action Name | Process time in ms | ts (in ticks) | extrasif (context.Items["Performance Monitor -> Page Actions"] != null) (context.Items["Performance Monitor -> Page Actions"]) .Add(string.Format("{0} | {1} | {2} | {3} | {4}", actionType,actionName,processTimeInMs.ToString(), DateTime.Now.Ticks.ToString(),extraData));

RoadmapOn - Development Features

Planned Product Features

Planned Product Features (continue…)

Centralized Exceptions ReportingThe ability to report an exception through Http Context, includes all exception details. The framework will be responsible to update all data on the System’s centralized storage, and enable to generate exceptions reports (includes all request data)

Centralized Audit ReportingThe ability to report audit actions (users audit, business activity…) through Http Context. The framework will be responsible to update all data on the System’s centralized storage, and enable to generate audit reports

Centralized Event LogThe ability to report event log actions (Debug, Information, Warnings & Critical) through Http Context. The framework will be responsible to update all data on the System’s centralized storage, and enable to generate event log reports

Planned Product Features (continue…)

Support More Application TypesThe framework is very open and flexible, and the same concept of web site pages & in-page actions reporting (both business activity & performance) can be adjusted to other application types (Windows Services, Mobile, Win Forms, WPF…). The framework would provide a static global object (Http Context equivalent) that would handle all internal processing

Enhancing Current Framework Flexibility– Advanced requests data extraction (complex post data, xml structures…) through

regular expressions, custom extraction code, and more…– Navigate specific requests (for example with exceptions) to other log files – that would

get extracted online to centralized storage– SQL Provider – online logs extraction to centralized storage– In Memory Statistics – especially for performance reports
