XML data format
Defining an XML data source
Attaching objects to XML data
Dashboard Builder enables you to augment your dashboard by using XML data files as a data source in addition to Apama DataView. The properties of dashboard objects can be attached to data elements in XML files. To be used as a data source, an XML file must follow the formatting guidelines presented in this chapter.
XML files can be used to make a dashboard more generic by isolating label values, colors, and similar attributes in a file which can be shared by multiple dashboards. XML files can also be used as an intermediary for bringing data from other sources into a dashboard.
