Advanced Features
TDengine IDMP offers a range of advanced features to help users better manage and utilize the system.
๐๏ธ Element Templates
In IoT and industrial scenarios, there are often large numbers of devices or logical entities of the same type. To reduce modeling and maintenance workload and to ensure data standardization, TDengine IDMP provides element templates. When creating a new element, you can choose to base it on an existing template. This feature is available under the Libraries section in the main menu.
๐๏ธ Event Templates
Analyses in TDengine IDMP can generate events. To better manage these events, TDengine IDMP requires that you specify an event template when creating an analysis.
๐๏ธ Enumeration Sets
You can create enumeration sets in TDengine IDMP to define certain integers as human-readable strings. You can define multiple enumeration sets, and each set can contain multiple enumeration items. You can add, delete, modify, and query both sets and items.
๐๏ธ Categories
To facilitate filtering and searching, you can define categories for any object in the system, including elements, attributes, panels, dashboards, and events. When creating these objects, you can assign one or more categories to them.
๐๏ธ Units of Measurement
Unit of Measurement Management
๐๏ธ Composite Metrics
You can view AI-generated composite metrics under Libraries in the main menu. This area lists the composite metrics recommended by AI based on your collected data, business semantics, and contextual information, organized into tree hierarchies for clarity. For each composite metric, the system provides a name, description, and calculation formula. These metrics help you assess the current state of operations, determine whether the system is performing as expected, and identify potential risks or anomalies.
๐๏ธ Element References
A single data asset often needs to be viewed from different angles depending on the organizational structure or user roles. To support this, TDengine IDMP allows an element to be added as a child under another element via a reference. This is called an element reference. With element references, elements can have multiple parents and be referenced in multiple places. These are not physical copies, but logical links, similar to how symbolic links work in a file system.
๐๏ธ Contact Point
The Event Management documentation details how the system triggers notifications when events meet specific conditions, sending alerts to predefined users or channels. Currently, the system supports two notification methods: email and Feishu.
๐๏ธ Expressions
Introduction to expression types and usage in the system
๐๏ธ Dashboard and Panel Notifications
Dashboards and panels can periodically send snapshot notifications to specified users.
