Data#

Requirements#

The Sierra Plot panel expects time series data frames, meaning each series must contain at least on field with time type (if multiple such fields exist, the first one will be used)
The data must also contain at least one field with type number to be used as the Amplitude
At least one field of type string is also required, to be used ad the Chart Breakdown

For example, let's assume that we want to plot the number of requests hitting a number of different servers
Each server is located in some region
Our request count metric is calculated separately for type=OK and type=ERROR

For the above example, our data will contain a time field, a number field that represents the number of requests, and a string field representing the server name

The following (optional) fields can also be used:

Use	Type	Description	Example
Group Breakdown	string	Group charts with the same group value	region
Series Breakdown	string	Split the charts' data according to the series values	type
Weight	number	Used for weighted average calculations	total requests

Notes#

• Sierra Plot expects that each data frame has the same fields
• Sierra Plot expects that each data frame be of the same length
• Sierra Plot doesn't currently support null values
