Components in the Carbon platform add functionality to Carbon-based products. For example, the statistics component enables users to monitor system and service level statistics. This component contains two bundles. One is the back-end bundle that collects, summarizes and stores statistics. The other is the front-end bundle, that presents the data to the user through a user-friendly interface. This component-based architecture of the WSO2 Carbon platform gives developers flexibility to build efficient and lean products that best suit their unique business needs, simply by adding and removing components.
