As a Senfi developer, your primary concern is to get data into Senfi, and to make use of Senfi's rule engine and computed measurement to setup automated alerting and actions. The following diagram gives you an overview of how data is processed and stored.

A typical usage follows this pattern:

  1. Data is fed to Senfi and ingested.
  2. Valid data will be saved.
  3. Valid data will also be passed to compute measurements that are derived.
  4. You can make use of live incoming measurement, computed measurement, or historical measurement in your rules.
  5. You can also configure actions to be taken when a rule is evaluated to be true. Or when a rule goes from true to false.
At any point in time, if the system encounters an unexpected condition or error (eg. due to invalid data), it will generate a log. These log entries can be examined in the CMS under debugger.
