About EnOS Unified Monitoring¶
EnOS Unified Monitoring is a one-stop monitoring configuration center with diversified, cross-domain monitoring capabilities. Based on measurement points, metrics, attributes, and other information stored in EnOS, application developers can quickly build cross-domain monitoring pages and help end users monitor asset statuses and key metrics in real time through various visual formats such as maps, lists, charts, and reports. In complex monitoring scenarios involving cross-domain and massive assets, Unified Monitoring can significantly improve the development efficiency of monitoring pages and shorten project delivery cycles.
Main Features¶
Unified Monitoring provides the following core features to support the full monitoring workflow from data display to analysis configuration:
Common Monitoring
Portfolio: Uses interactive asset maps as the core to display multi-level and multi-type asset distributions and data.
Asset List: Provides lists of regions, sites, and devices across multiple domains, as well as attribute, measurement point, and metric information for related assets.
Common Analysis
Charting Tool: Displays data trends of regions, sites, or devices within a specific time period in the form of visual charts.
Common KPI Inquiry: Displays basic information and data of regions, sites, and devices within a specific time period in the form of metric reports.
General Configurations
Landing Page: Supports building visual monitoring pages, offering features such as multi-level asset filtering, multi-dimensional time filtering, and real-time page editing.
Unified Asset Tree: Serves as an asset-centric navigation mode that can be associated with secondary application menus and integrated into other monitoring pages to quickly filter assets and display asset information on the monitoring page.
Usage¶
Unified Monitoring provides flexible integration methods to meet the needs of different business scenarios:
Use as a Standalone EnOS Application
Unified Monitoring can be used as an out-of-the-box standalone application containing 6 complete functional modules: Asset Overview, Asset List, Charting Tool, Common KPI Inquiry, Landing Page, and Unified Asset Tree, providing users with a one-stop monitoring solution.
Integrate Functional Pages into Custom Applications
Each functional page of Unified Monitoring can also act as an independent component and be integrated into custom or third-party applications via page URLs:
Application developers can add page URLs as application menus and customize menu names, menu hierarchies, etc.
Multiple Unified Monitoring page menus can be added to an application as needed to achieve flexible combinations of functional modules.
Each menu maps to an independent functional page, which is assigned to end users after configuration is completed.
This flexible integration method enables enterprises to quickly build customized monitoring applications based on business needs.
User Roles¶
Unified Monitoring mainly serves the following two types of user roles:
Application Developers
Responsible for configuring monitoring pages, typically found in roles such as IoT developers, solution engineers, and implementation engineers. Based on the functional modules provided by Unified Monitoring, application developers can perform application architecture design, functional page configuration, application integration, and publishing, converting business requirements into running monitoring applications.
End Users
Responsible for using monitoring pages, typically found in roles such as operations managers, asset administrators, and business analysts. Based on actual business needs, end users can perform daily O&M tasks such as asset monitoring, data queries, trend analysis, and report exports within authorized monitoring applications.
To obtain application or page permissions, contact the OU administrator.
Product Architecture¶
As a key component in the EnOS application ecosystem, Unified Monitoring’s product architecture consists of the following layers from bottom to top:
Data layer: Obtains device measurement points, metrics, attributes, and other data from EnOS Common Data Access.
Permission layer: Leverages EnOS Application Portal to achieve one-stop configuration of application access permissions, functional operation permissions, and asset visibility.
Configuration layer: Allows application developers to complete visual configuration of monitoring pages, asset associations, and layout settings.
Application layer: Supports combining multiple monitoring pages into multi-functional monitoring applications, suitable for complex business scenarios involving multiple domains, levels, and roles.
Presentation layer: Supports various terminals such as PCs, mobile devices, and large screens, providing end users with a consistent and smooth monitoring experience.
