Understanding Views
Views are requests made to the Source CMS site. Views exclude static content such as images, Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), and JavaScript. Views also exclude redirect requests, client errors, and activity that originates from known bots and crawlers. Therefore, Views count requests that actual users generate and that the platform successfully serves to them.
View calculation method
The Acquia platform collects data to calculate Views. Specifically, Views are counted at the Varnish® layer and includes Dynamic Requests with HTTP 2xx status. Acquia excludes the following requests when the platform calculates the total amount of Views:
Requests generated by known bots.
Requests generated by Acquia uptime monitor tools.
HTTP 3xx redirect status requests.
HTTP 4xx client error status requests.
Comparison with Analytics Tools
Analytics tools such as Google Analytics measure instances of page loads. Acquia measures a level below these page loads and aggregates requests that reach the Acquia platform.
Overage management
The Source CMS displays alerts on the subscription page when the account approaches or exceeds the limits of the plan.
Note
To obtain assistance with overage charges or site limits, contact your Account Manager. The Account team provides information about the Views entitlement options for the site.
