Reporting

We’ve recently rolled out the Event Management Report, providing a list of generator runs for a period of time by site and system. Refer to the next section for more on Aurora’s Reports.

The report functionality in Aurora on-prem facilitates analytics on most data points that are logged and persisted according to the rollup options configured in the Aurora Admin module, by your administrator. By default, the platform is configured with the following intervals: minutes, quarter hour, hour, and day. Use this chart as a guide on what granular resolution will be available for data point trending.

These rollup rules are in force to improve performance on the server as minute-level resolution is highly intensive and cannot be persisted indefinitely. However, event-related data is saved in seconds and stored indefinitely assuming existing infrastructure.

Data Interval Persistence Without Events

Interval (Resolution)	Data Persisted
Minutes	32 days
¼ Hour	1 year
Hourly	3 years
Days	3 years

Persistence of discrete, binary data is subject to system storage capacity.

Trend data is also available from Entity Details and Event Details.
