BizMetry Resources¶

In BizMetry terminology, a Resource represents a business asset or object (ASBO — Application-Specific Business Object) that your organization wants to monitor, track, or analyze as part of its observability goals.

Each resource is directly tied to business KPIs and contributes to measuring the success of your strategic objectives.

🧩 Concept¶

A Resource encapsulates the essential entities your business depends on — whether physical, digital, or logical — and provides the foundation for metric tracking within BizMetry.

These are core elements of your telemetry model, as their attributes (numeric or non-numeric) represent the actual measurable business performance indicators.

Resources as Objects of Interest

Resources are the "objects of interest" that BizMetry continuously tracks through telemetry agents and KPIs.

🧠 Resource and Domain Relationship¶

Every resource belongs to a single Business Domain, which defines its context and scope within your organization.

For example:

A Customer resource belongs to the Sales Domain
An AI Model resource belongs to the AI Domain
A Vehicle resource belongs to the Fleet Management Domain
A Bank Account resource belongs to the Finance Domain

This one-to-one mapping ensures a clear lineage between business entities and the KPIs that measure their performance.

🧩 Defining Resource Types¶

BizMetry allows you to define multiple Resource Types within a Telemetry Template.

A Resource Type acts as a category or logical grouping that aggregates one or more Resources sharing similar characteristics, structure, or purpose.

Benefits of Resource Types

A Resource Type provides a higher-level abstraction that makes it easier to:

Organize related resources by business logic or operational context
Filter and analyze telemetry by category (e.g., AI Models vs. Customers vs. Vehicles)
Associate specific metrics or KPIs with only the relevant subset of resources
Reuse common telemetry definitions across multiple environments or profiles

Grouping Criteria¶

A Resource Type groups multiple resources that share a common nature, such as the same origin system, data schema, or business purpose.

Typical grouping criteria include:

Belonging to the same originating system (e.g., CRM, ERP, AI Hub)
Operating in the same geographic or organizational region
Sharing the same business behavior or telemetry patterns

Examples of Resource Types¶

Each Telemetry Template can have several Resource Types defined — for example:

AIModel, AIPrompt, and AIDataset under an AI Domain
PurchaseOrder, InventoryItem, and Customer under a Retail Domain
BankAccount, Loan, and Transaction under a Finance Domain

This approach provides flexibility and modularity, ensuring that each BizMetry profile accurately represents your business architecture and telemetry needs.

🏢 Business Examples of Resources¶

Depending on your organization's industry and telemetry setup, a Resource may represent:

Domain	Example Resources
Retail	Purchase Order, Inventory Item, Customer
Banking	Bank Account, Transaction, Estimate
AI Solutions	AI Model, AI Prompt, Dataset, AI Agent
Healthcare	Clinical History, Appointment
Marketing	Campaign, Catalog
Transportation	Vehicle, Fleet, Route, Delivery
Manufacturing	Production Line, Machine, Part

Industry Agnostic

Regardless of the industry, each resource can expose one or more attributes tied to performance metrics — latency, cost, success rate, error ratio, ROI, utilization, etc.

⚙️ Resource Attributes and KPIs¶

A Resource is described by one or more Attributes — each representing a measurable aspect of its behavior or status.

Attributes can hold numeric (e.g., response time, sales volume, temperature) or non-numeric values (e.g., status, region, category).

Each attribute:

Is mapped to a Business Metric or KPI
Reflects operational or strategic goals
Enables trend analysis, anomaly detection, and performance tracking over time

Key Capability

BizMetry's main capability lies in connecting these attributes to your high-level business objectives, allowing you to measure progress and make data-driven decisions.

⚙️ How Clients Interact with Resources¶

A Client in BizMetry can invoke Resources across one or more Business Domains through real operational actions.

These interactions are what generate the telemetry and KPIs captured by the BizMetry Platform.

Examples of such operations include:

Creating a Work Order in a service or maintenance system
Scheduling an Appointment in a medical or veterinary application
Planning or assigning a Trip in a fleet management domain
Invoking AI Models (SLMs/LLMs) from AI applications for predictions or chat completions
Updating Inventory levels in a retail environment
Creating a New Bank Account in a financial application
Performing Money Transfers between accounts
Registering or modifying Customer Data across systems
Launching Marketing Campaigns or managing Catalog Items

Observability Foundation

These interactions between Clients and Resources form the backbone of BizMetry's observability model — every operation can be traced, measured, and analyzed in terms of performance, cost, and business impact.

🧭 Purpose in BizMetry¶

Resources are the backbone of the BizMetry observability framework. They enable:

Capturing real-time operational data from distributed systems
Tracking performance evolution across domains and clients
Establishing a metric-driven connection between business operations and strategic KPIs
Providing visibility into the assets that matter most to your business outcomes

🧠 Extended Example – AI Chat Completion¶

In an AI domain, multiple resources participate in a chat completion workflow, and BizMetry captures their telemetry collectively within a single frame.

For each invocation, the following resources and attributes are measured:

Resource	Captured Attributes
Prompt Template	Template ID, Language, Toxicity Score
AI Model	Model Name, Version, Self/External Hosted, Tokens (In/Out), Inference Latency
Datasets (RAG)	Dataset Count, Retrieval Similarity Score
AI Agent	Request Cost (USD), Region, Client ID, Bias Deviation, Completion Time

BizMetry captures this data just-in-time, either automatically through auto-instrumentation, or manually through its SDK, and ships it via telemetry agents to the BizMetry platform for consolidation and insight generation.
