<summary>Explain "Time Series" data</summary><br><b>
|

|
|
|
|||
|
|
Time series data is sequenced data, measuring certain parameter in ordered (by time) way.
|
|||
|
|

|
An example would be CPU utilization every hour:

<summary>Explain data aggregation</summary><br><b>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
In monitoring, aggregating data is basically combining collection of values. It can be done in different ways like taking the average of multiple values, the sum of them, the count of many times they appear in the collection and other ways that mainly depend on the type of the collection (e.g. time-series would be one type).
