Resource Analyzer monitors request activity, logging the attributes of each request and storing them in a set of Usage Monitoring tables. Once an adequate amount of Usage Monitoring data has been collected, you can run Resource Analyzer reports, which illustrate (in both tabular and graphical format) various aspects of request activity at your site.

You access Resource Analyzer administrative and reporting features through the server Web Console.
