10 HDR Reports and Analytics

The HDR Reports and Analytics feature, in Oracle® Session Delivery Management Cloud (Oracle SDM Cloud), provides a centralized platform for session delivery monitoring and management.

This feature enables reporting and analytics for Network Function (NF) data by integrating and processing Historical Data Records (HDR) groups from Session Border Controllers (SBC) and Enterprise Session Border Controllers (ESBC) devices. The raw data sent by these devices is processed, ingested, and aggregated into hourly, daily, weekly, and monthly granularities, making it readily available for generating reports. Users can leverage Oracle SDM Cloud Analytics to perform advanced visualization, analytics, and real-time monitoring of HDR data. Additionally, the feature supports historical trend analysis based on HDR statistics, allowing users to generate both pre-defined (canned) and custom reports.

Note:

Reports and Analytics may take up to one hour to appear in Oracle SDM Cloud after being provisioned. Only users with the appropriate permissions are able to see the Reports and Analytics option in the dashboard slider menu. For more information, see Application Roles.
Users can perform the following functions with the HDR Reports and Analytics feature:
  • Collect HDR data—Configure Collection Groups to enable the collection of Historical Data Records (HDR) from SBC/ESBC devices. A collection group consists of a set of parameters and devices designated for gathering HDR data, defining settings such as HDR groups, collection intervals, start and stop times, and push receiver details.
  • Manage collection groups—Add new collection groups to include specific HDR data for monitoring and analysis. Edit existing collection groups to update configurations, such as descriptions, intervals, or HDR groups.
  • Analyze HDR data—Leverage Oracle SDM Cloud Analytics for advanced visualization and analytics. Perform real-time monitoring of HDR data and historical trend analysis based on HDR statistics.
  • Generate reports—Create custom reports tailored to specific metrics and analysis needs. Use canned reports for predefined analytics and insights.
  • Monitor Network Function (NF) data—Access HDR statistics grouped by categories and types. Utilize record timestamps to analyze data within specific time windows.
  • Integrate with SBC/ESBC Devices—Ensure SBC/ESBC devices are configured to forward HDR files in CSV format to Oracle SDM Cloud for processing and analysis.
Oracle SDM Cloud Analytics is session-based, meaning each user session lasts 24 hours from the time of the user's most recent login to Oracle SDM Cloud. Once this 24 hour window expires, Oracle SDM Cloud Analytics stops displaying data and users must log back in to Oracle SDM Cloud to establish a new 24 hour session.

Note:

Oracle SDM Cloud Analytics ensures that users can only view data related to the devices they have been granted access to within Oracle SDM Cloud.
