Usage

The Usage page provides key metrics about resource consumption for a specified date and workspace, including DataWorks task resource usage, compute and storage resource consumption, resource usage rankings, and fluctuation analysis. This helps you monitor your resource usage and improve resource management.

Permissions

To view resource usage for any workspace, you must have one of the following permissions:
- Alibaba Cloud account owner
- A RAM user with the AliyunDataWorksFullAccess policy
- tenant administrator
- Tenant-level data governance administrator
Other users can only select workspaces where they are members.

Access the Usage page

Go to the Data Asset Governance page.
Log on to the DataWorks console. In the top navigation bar, select the desired region. In the left-side navigation pane, choose Data Governance > Data Asset Governance. On the page that appears, click Go to Data Asset Governance.
In the left-side navigation pane, choose Assets > Asset Analysis > Usage to open the Usage page.

Resource usage

This page displays usage and trends for DataWorks task resources, compute resources, and storage resources, based on the workspace and business date you select. This information helps you monitor resource consumption and optimize services.

The DataWorks task resource usage section shows the number of periodic scheduling instances and batch synchronization instances, along with their day-over-day and month-over-month changes. In the compute and storage resource usage section, you can switch between the MaxCompute, E-MapReduce, and Hologres tabs to view metrics for the selected engine, such as Table Storage, Running Jobs, Compute Consumption (subscription), and Compute Consumption (pay-as-you-go), along with their day-over-day and month-over-month trends.

Fluctuation analysis

You can view fluctuations in resource-related metrics for the selected date and workspace, such as Computing Resource Consumption, Storage Resource Consumption, DataWorks Scheduling Resource Consumption, and DataWorks Batch Synchronization Consumption. By default, the page displays details for items with any metric change (|Metric Change| > 0). You can also sort by your preferred metrics to view items with significant fluctuations and click a Node Name to view task details.

On the Fluctuation Analysis page, you can select a resource type, such as MaxCompute, from the Resource Type drop-down list. The table displays columns such as Node ID, Node Name, Tags, MaxCompute Project, Owner, Scheduling Cycle, Today's Compute Usage, Yesterday's Compute Usage, Today's Compute Usage Growth, and Today's Compute Usage Fluctuation Rate. The page also provides options to Refresh, Clear Filter, and Customize Columns.

User resource rankings

You can view resource usage rankings for the selected date and workspace. The rankings are organized by dimensions such as MaxCompute Computing Resource, MaxCompute Storage Resources, DataWorks Periodic Scheduling, and DataWorks Batch Synchronization. You can also click View Details at the bottom of the page to go to the Resource type pivoting page for more details on computing and storage resources.

For example, the ranking table for the MaxCompute computing resources dimension includes columns such as Rank, User, Today's New CU-Hour Consumption, Today's CU-Hour Consumption, Yesterday's CU-Hour Consumption, 7-Day Average CU-Hour Consumption, Today's New Compute Usage, Today's Compute Usage, Yesterday's Compute Usage, and 7-Day Average Compute Usage.
