Events Overview

The Events Overview gives you a high-level view of your event consumption across your organisation. To access it, select Events from the sidebar — the Overview tab is shown by default.

Summary Metrics​

At the top of the Overview, two key metrics are displayed:

  • Total events — The total number of events received during the selected reporting period
  • Daily mean — The average number of events received per day during the period

Event Consumption Chart​

The main chart visualises your event consumption over time as a stacked bar chart, broken down by team or application. This helps you understand which parts of your organisation are generating the most events and how consumption trends over time.

Filters​

You can customise the view using the filter bar above the chart:

  • Reporting period — Select the time range to analyse (e.g. last week, last month)
  • Event type — Filter by event type or view all events
  • Group by — View the Total event consumption or break it down by Team
  • View — Switch between Daily values or a Cumulative view over time
  • Visualization — Display results as a Bar chart or a Table

Exporting Data​

Click the Export CSV link above the chart to download the raw event consumption data for further analysis.

Use Cases​

The Events Overview is particularly useful for:

  • Understanding consumption patterns — See how event volume is distributed across teams and applications
  • Capacity planning — Monitor event growth over time to anticipate scaling needs
  • Cost attribution — Identify which teams or applications are driving event consumption
  • Debugging spikes — Spot unusual increases in event volume and trace them to a specific team or application
