The activity monitoring dashboard is used to display activity IDs that are matching with certain filter criteria(for example : date-time range, server, service and operation). In addition, all the events which belong to specific activity ID can be displayed. Activity monitoring dashboard directly connects to Cassandra cluster to get the result. This is different than the previous activity monitoring dashboards where previously it was required to run hive scripts.
