Manage usage statistics on SAP Cloud Platform mobile service for development and operations

Go to your SAP Cloud Platform mobile service for development and operations cockpit and log on.

Navigate to the Reporting page.

From here, you can access a multitude of usage statistics. In this tutorial, we will go through the most important ones.

Click the Server Data Report tile. These reports show server statistics, such as the number of registrations, type of devices registered, response times, offline requests, etc. By default, it opens with the Registrations (by Time) report. Change the Time Frame to Last 7 Days:

From the Usage drop-down box, select the Response Time option:

This report will give you insights in Mobile related processing times, Authentication times and Back-End response times. These insights can be useful to indicate certain bottlenecks in your application. In this example, you can see the mobile related processing time has decreased by refactoring certain parts of the application, resulting in an improved performance.

Click the Client Data Reports tile. At this stage of the tutorial, you won’t see any statistics yet. The client data reports will only be gathered when applications have enabled collecting usage statistics – something you haven’t done yet.

Click the Push Statistics tile. Here you can review notification counts by application or OS, by time period.

The last tile is Hybrid Application Versions Report. Since you’re creating a native iOS application, we won’t cover the significance of this tile in this tutorial.
