One really neat feature in the Vordel Application Gateway is the ability to schedule reports on API and Web Service usage. You can schedule reports to run on a regular basis, and have the results emailed to the user in PDF format, just like Google Analytics. These reports include summary values at the top (for example, the number of requests, SLA breaches, alerts triggered, and unique clients in a specified week) followed by a table of APIs and Services, and their aggregated usage data (for example, the number of requests on each API or Web Service).
It is quite simple to configure this with the Vordel Application Gateway. Just right-click the
Listeners ->
Vordel Reporter node in the Policy Studio tree, and follow the configuration steps which are listed here on the Vordel Extranet:
