Summary
In this chapter, we have investigated methods for managing the DataOps process. First, we learned how to monitor the performance of an Alteryx Server with the Server Usage reports and how we can use the Usage Report macro to extract the data records. We then created an Insight monitoring dashboard using the Usage Report macro. We were able to deploy the insight to our server and keep it updated to monitor performance over time. Finally, we learned how to export the Usage Report records and extract the MongoDB database to create an analytical database that we can query to establish insights into the performance of our Alteryx server.
After gaining knowledge and insights from the Alteryx Server reporting, we learned about methods for additional workflow validation and how to use software version control to maintain our workflow code base. First, we learned how to use Git and GitHub to record workflow changes and how those changes are found in the XML and Alteryx workflow....
