Introduction

X-Road® Metrics is a tool for collecting, storing and analysing reporting data and metrics from an X-Road® ecosystem. The data can be used to measure usage of individual services, understand dependencies and relationships between different information systems and services, monitor service health, etc. Also, the information can be published as open data.

X-Road Metrics can be used by both X-Road Operators and X-Road Members. The X-Road Operator can use X-Road Metrics to collect data from an entire X-Road ecosystem while X-Road Members can access their own data.
