Standard Data Collection
Cloudex collects configuration and utilization data from your public cloud environments and then analyzes the data to provide resizing recommendations to run your cloud-based applications on the correct infrastructure.
Reviewing Data Collection Status
Once the connections are created, data will be collected and stored for detailed analysis. As data is collected the Connections table is populated/updated with the status of each connection.
Data collection details will appear in this table within a few minutes, but your instance-specific data will not appear in the tree viewer until it has been analyzed, usually within 24-hrs. This is also the case for all reports/tabs that show the analyzed data and resulting recommendations.
