Objective

The aim of this article is to present the different views you can find in the menu Statistics of SPN9 (from the 9.5 version). If you have a version below the 9.5 version, you may have this view:

In this article, we will concentrate on this view (from 9.5 version):

Prerequisites:

• Have a SPNS server from 9.5 version
• Have an access with an administrator role

 

What are the different views?

1) Personal View

The Personal view lists translation requests for a user by month, for the last one year. The requests are grouped by Language Pair, Profile Name/ID, Mime type or User agent.

Choose Personal view to display the:

• Number of requests and successes for each language pair
• Total number of segments translated and segments in cache
• Number of characters and characters in cache
• Elapsed time in ms
• User agent used (Translation box, Translation Alternatives, File Translate box, WebTranslate, Gateway, Chrome Extension, Office Add-ins, etc.)

 

2) User view

The User view lists all the requests made by a specific user in a particular month. The requests can be grouped by Profile Name/ID, Language Pair, Mime Type or User agent.

Choose User view to display the:

• Number of requests and successes for each language pair or profile name
• Total of segments translated and segments in cache
• Number of characters and characters in cache
• Elapsed time in ms
• User agent used

 

3) Group view

The Group view is the same as the user view, but it is for a particular group.

 

4) Global View

The Global view can list translation requests for a period of time. They are grouped by Language Pair or Profile Name.

Choose Global view to display the:

• Number of requests, successes and errors for each language pair
• Success rate
• “Segment cache hits” that shows the number of segments that have been retrieved from the cache
• Number of characters & tokens
• Average number of characters & tokens
• Elapsed time and average elapsed time (in ms)

 

5) Session view

The Session view lists the requests done by a user for a period of time. It is more precise than the other views. The requests are grouped by User Name, Language Pair, Profile name, Operation, Mime type or User agent.

Choose Session view to display the:

• Date, User Name and Language Pair of each operation (translate/file, translate/async/file or detect/language)
• Profile used
• Operation (e.g. translate/file)
• Success of the operation (true or false)
• Elapsed time
• Mime Type (e.g. text/plain)
• “Segment cache hits” that shows the number of segments that have been retrieved from the cache
• Number of characters
• Number of tokens
• Number of TUs (Translation Units)
• Failed TUs
• User agent used

 

6) Detailed View

The detailed view lists the requests done by a user for a period of time, it lists each task or request separately. It is like the session view, but it is more precise and detailed. The requests are grouped by User Name, Language Pair, Profile name, Operation, Success state, Mime type or User agent.

 

Some notes regarding the improvements of Statistics (>SPNS 9.5)

User view

It allows users to see statistics per user and per month. Depending on the permissions, users will see:

1) only their personal translation statistics (with permission TA001- User Personal Statistics)

or

2) all other users they can list (depending on permissions IAM010-List Peer Group User or IAM201-List All Users and TA002-Users’ Statistics). The accessible users and the month needed can be selected in the drop-down list.

 

Group view

This page lists translation requests by group and month to users with the permission TA003-View Groups' Statistics. The groups listed here depend on the permissions IAM011-List My Groups and IAM202-List all groups.

 

Cache segments hits

Four columns for the statistics (in User view and Group view) have been added to compare:

• the number of segments retrieved from the cache (Segments in cache) and the number of translated segments (Segments)

• the number of characters retrieved from the cache (Characters in cache) and the number of translated segments (Characters)

[The statistics can be exported in a CSV file]
