You should know how much cache space you need for your deliverable content before you create a Cloud Wrapper configuration. Cloud Wrapper provides a utility to examine the cache footprint of the content that's been delivered through your delivery configuration ("property"). It compares successful cache hits against cache-misses.

Use this information to help choose the amount of capacity for your Cloud Wrapper configuration. Your account team will add the agreed upon capacity to your capacity inventory.

• This report estimates the Cloud Wrapper capacity you need for your initial configuration.
• Your account team creates these reports at your request.

📘

Your property needs at least 37 days of activity to perform an analysis. This ensures enough traffic data is available to provide a clear estimate of performance. You can use an existing property with 37 days of traffic, or create a new property and wait 37 days to gather the necessary data.

View your Footprint Analysis

You can use a footprint analysis to:

• View existing analysis configurations and their status.
• Access the analysis report.
• Use the Actions menu to Create a Cloud Wrapper Config from a Succeeded analysis configuration.

The analysis report uses your selected Cloud Wrapper configuration to display estimated traffic patterns. Your report shows offload performance of Origin Hits, Origin Volume, and the estimated Cloud Wrapper Capacity you need to achieve those results.

🚧

These reports aren't for properties already using Cloud Wrapper and don't reflect active Cloud Wrapper performance. View the dashboard for a footprint analysis of an active configuration.

To view this analysis:

1. Go to ☰ > ORIGIN SERVICES > Cloud Wrapper.
2. Select the Footprint Analysis entity.

Estimate your capacity

Use a Footprint Analysis Report to determine if the Cloud Wrapper configuration will meet your offload needs. You can have analysis reports for different configurations to help model your Cloud Wrapper capacity. Adjust the Chosen Cache Space (GB) slider to see an estimate of how your configuration would perform with a Lower Footprint versus a Higher Footprint. Compare your Current and Estimated values to view the +/- Change.

Report accuracy

Your past traffic patterns are used to generate these estimates and aren’t an exact predictor of future performance. Use these reports to gain performance insight using different Cloud Wrapper configurations. Changes to your workflow or traffic during the polling period will impact the accuracy of the analysis report.

Content with a time to live of less than one day may provide inconsistent reporting curves.

The widgets

Each individual content panel in the reporting tabs is referred to as a "widget." Several widgets make up this tab, including:

Use Cloud Wrapper with multiple locations

You can use Cloud Wrapper with multiple locations by creating rule trees in Property Manager. Do this by adding behavior conditions to your property configuration. Cloud Wrapper supports these Rules and Match conditions:

• Advanced Match

• CDN Network

• Content Provider Code

• Hostname

• Path

• Query String Parameter
