Endpoints added to your network can opt-in to send these metrics to the Iroh Services platform which will appear on the project dashboard. ## Project metrics All endpoint metrics are aggregated at the project level, to provide insights into overall network performance. This aggregated data helps in understanding trends and patterns without exposing individual endpoint details. Project metrics dashboard ### Online Endpoints The number of endpoints currently online and connected to your project. This gives you a real-time view of your network's active nodes. Online endpoints metric ### Direct Data Rate Direct data rate measures the amount of data being transferred directly between endpoints in your network, without relaying through a server. A higher direct data rate indicates better peer-to-peer connectivity and can lead to improved performance and lower latency for your users. Direct data rate metric ### Traffic Sent & Received This metric tracks the amount of data being sent and received by your endpoints. Monitoring traffic patterns can help you identify potential bottlenecks and optimize network performance. Traffic sent and received metric Traffic sent metric ## Relay metrics If you have dedicated relays set up for your project, you can also view metrics related to relay performance, such as number of endpoints over time and relay data transfer. Relay metrics dashboard ## Privacy All metrics collected are anonymized and aggregated to ensure user privacy. No personally identifiable information (PII) is collected or stored. The focus is on overall network performance rather than individual user behavior.
