Monitoring using Axiom’s Data Explorer
This month, we published the latest tutorial on Axiom Data Explorer. The newly published tutorial includes lots of helpful links and guide on how you can discover valuable insights, explore, store, run super-fast queries and monitor high volumes of fresh and historical structured data using Axiom Data Explorer.

Modified APL Function
The now() function now accepts a parameter to build relative queries (e.g. now(-5h))
Dashboards now support “compare against”!
We introduced the “compare against” feature to Dashboards for you to quickly see how current values compare against a previous point in time i.e. compare this hour to the same hour a day ago. This will enable you to compare your charts to a specific time and see if it’s behaving differently or not.
New Dashboard Experience on Axiom Play
Dashboards are now accessible on Axiom Play. It is a read only dashboard experience that provides you with query information across multiple datasets which are visualized in one place.
We introduced New Functions and Aggregations in Axiom Processing Language:
countif()
The countif() aggregation function returns a count of rows for which Predicate evaluates to true
