The Performance Index Gauge widget gives an overview of how business applications have performed in the past as well as how they perform right now.

The widget shows a 10 minute and 1-hour index score of how the applications have performed and a green/red arrow to quickly spot the current trend. The clock hands are showing the index score for 10 minutes as the minute hand and the last hour as the hour hand.

The index scores are calculated based on Adaptive Baselining values, by comparing the response time for both the previous 10 minutes and the hour with the current

Examples for the resolution for the last full 10 minutes (0-10, 10-20, 20-30, etc.) and the last full hour:

Examples of index score calculations:

An index score below 100 is worse and above means better response time.
