To be able to retrieve data from akamai we need to perform the following steps:
- Create an cloudmonitor property
- Add an cloudmonitor behavior to every property you want to export data from
In the cloudmonitor property we define to which endpoint you want to send the data. (More detailed instruction can be found at Akamai site)
Create an property of the type "Cloud monitor data delivery"
Basic settings of an cloudmonitor property:
To enable cloudmonitor on your site properties, just add cloudmonitor behavior with correct parameters.
On a very busy property, it might not be necessary with very detailed data, since it will result in a high log bandwith and associated costs. If you are willing to accept some inaccuracy, you can enable sampling of cloudmonitor data. This is done in two steps:
- Set a criteria on the Cloudmonitor rule
- Set a matching sample rate as a parameter in the delivery url path on the Cloudmonitor behavior
