Advanced Analytics
Advanced analytics is a set of paid reports on requests, traffic, unique users, grouped by:
- Countries
- Directories
- Browsers
- Devices
- Operating systems
You can activate all reports or only those that are required, for example, Directories and Devices.
To activate, contact us via email (support@gcore.com), chat, or write to your account manager.
Please note that after reports activation, it will take about 24 hours to collect statistics and display the data correctly.
! Before activation of advanced analytics reports, the Advanced Analytics tab displays examples of reports with random data.
Filters
For more detailed analysis, use filters. They are applied to all available report types.
1. Specify the resource you want to display statistics for.
2. Select the type of advanced analytics: requests, traffic, or unique users.
Please, note! Unique users are defined by a set of IP + user-agent parameters.
3. Choose the period for which you want to display statistics.
4. In the filters by country, directory, browser, device, and operating system, you can specify the parameters that will be displayed on the charts in the reports below.
The parameters specified in the filters influence the data displayed in all report types.
For example, if you select PC in the Device filter, other reports (Geography, Directories, Browsers, OS) will display data based on your choice, i.e. countries with traffic/unique users/requests from PCs or, for example, traffic/unique users/requests from browsers running from PCs.
Please, note! Filters by country, directory, browser, devices, and operating systems are available depending on whether the required report type is activated or not. Filters are not available for a demo mode.

How statistics are collected
Statistics are used both for invoices and for displaying data on CDN resources in your personal account.
There are two methods for statistics calculation. The first one is based on accuracy, which is needed to create invoices, and the second one is based on speed and relevance, which are needed to create and display reports in your personal account.
- For billing statistics and invoices, we use Nginx access logs. It is resource logs we collect, process and store.
There are a lot of logs, which contain a large amount of data. Their processing requires time and resources, so we do not use them as real-time statistics.
- For real-time reports, we use Nginx virtual host traffic status module. It is a special request to get information about the current state of resources.
Note! The UTC time zone is used for all statistics.
