License Statistics retrieves license usage data from the license servers and writes the data to a MySQL database.
License Statistics lets you track and report software license usage in real time, or through log importation:
- Real-time usage reporting refers to gathering real-time data and usage statistics gathered from the license server at specified intervals (see Viewing feature usage for information about update intervals), and storing this information in a MySQL database.
...
- Furthermore, this type of monitoring allows you to gather usage information available since the time of its configuration.
- Imported usage reporting is used for existing data gathered from the log files of a variety of Supported license servers.
License Statistics runs an embedded http server, which handles requests for HTML pages that contain usage statistics tables and graphs, and makes them accessible from a web browser. Web pages are automatically generated, updated and refreshed, so no user interaction is required to generate and maintain the latest statistics. See Viewing and managing your usage statistics using the web-based UI for details on using the web application.
