Pulse Data

Cubewise Pulse stores a wide range of data related to IBM Planning Analytics (TM1) environments. Here’s an overview of the main types of data it captures and maintains:

1. System Monitoring Data

  • Server Metrics: CPU usage, memory consumption, disk space, and uptime.

  • Session Information: Active user sessions, session IDs, and connection details.

  • Thread and Process Data: Running chores, TurboIntegrator processes, and execution times.

  • Logs: TM1 server logs.

2. Change Tracking & Model Metadata

  • Model Changes: Rules, feeders, dimensions, subsets, and process modifications.

  • Impact Analysis Data: Relationships between objects (rules, feeders, TI processes).

  • Technical Documentation: Automatically generated documentation of TM1 models.

3. User & License Analytics

  • User Activity: Who accessed which application, when, and for how long.

  • License Usage: License optimization reports to track compliance and utilization.

4. Migration & DevOps Data

  • Migration Packages: Includes metadata and optionally cube data (encrypted during migration).

  • Rollback Information: Data required to revert changes if needed.

5. Performance & Historical Data

  • Historical Metrics: Second-by-second tracking of TM1 performance.

  • Alert History: Records of triggered alerts and system health checks.

Storage Details

  • All this data is stored in the Pulse database (default H2 or MS SQL Server for larger environments).

  • Pulse also uses OpenSearch for fast querying and visualization.

  • Sensitive data like cube content during migration is encrypted using Pulse’s encryption key.
