What is a Metric?
• Around 88% of over 800 metrics are generic 1:1 • IBM uses about 74% generic and ca. 22% PVU-based metrics • Rule of thumb for metrics: the more complex the more expensive is the product

Data Discovery
• Various solutions with particular different scopes/capabilities • Agent-based vs. agent-less • Configurable (plugins, pattern, adapters) vs. static

Active collection of the necessary data from the sources with an import connector (Asset management systems (e.g. OCS, SCCM), Database, Table, or remote directories (through S/FTP, SCP, ODB, etc.)
Transformation of the data using Import Pre-Processors (IPP) or Import Templates if the data is not in the correct format
Loading the data in SmartTrack, the import load is configurable in the Import Control Processor (ICP)
Extract Transform Load
