Query resource usage

Notes

• The traffic data for an accelerated domain name that is obtained from the Monitoring and Usage features in the DCDN console (or by using OpenAPI) is different from the traffic data calculated from logs. Typically, the traffic data obtained from the Monitoring and Usage features is 1.1 times the traffic data calculated from logs. For more information, see Why does the traffic data from Monitoring and Usage differ from the traffic data calculated from logs?.

• The Usage, Resource Monitoring, and Real-time Monitoring features calculate data using different dimensions:

  • Usage: Usage data is collected at the DCDN node level. Each DCDN node is uniquely assigned to a billable region. Therefore, you can query usage data only by billable region, for example, Chinese mainland, Asia Pacific 1, or North America.

  • Resource Monitoring and Real-time Monitoring: Gathers data based on the client IP address. Each client IP address belongs to a specific region or ISP. Therefore, you can query monitoring data only by region, ISP, or a combination of both.

• You can query data from the past year:

  • By day: Query usage for the current day or any day within the last 355 days.

  • By month: Query usage for the current month or any month within the last 11 months.

Procedure

1. Log on to the DCDN console.

2. In the left-side navigation pane, choose Data Center > Usage .

3. Click the Usage Details tab.

4. Select Query By Date or Query By Month from the drop-down list, set a time range to query, and then click Query.
