Hi Aditya,

Thank you for pointing this out. It would also be more convenient for users to navigate to specific statistics easily.

So, can we finalise the following design?
- Single dashboard with buttons to toggle between General (existing graphs/stats) and System Statistics.

Why use buttons and not tabs? Tabs are far more flexible as they can be re-arranged, docked differently etc.

 

- Clubbing OS, CPU, Process, Disk and I/O in tabbed control.

I think the current design has too much on one big page, so yes, I'd want to see those split up onto different tabs. Not sure about the grouping though. Maybe:

Summary (OS info, system specs etc)

CPU

Memory

Storage (including I/O)

Process info would be included on each tab as related to that tab's content - e.g. CPU per process on the CPU tab, memory per process on the memory tab, etc..)

Thanks,

Sahil

Hi Sahil,

I would suggest club OS, CPU, Process, Disk and I/O in a tabbed control. (Taking inspiration from the task manager).

It will reduce the network calls, cluttering and improve DOM performance.

Thank you, Akshay, for your feedback. 

Here are a few more designs that I have created based on the discussion with my mentors. I would love to know your thoughts on them. 

Design 1 - Using an additional new tab for system statistics
Design 2 - Added buttons to toggle between existing dashboard data and system statistics.

    I personally like Design 2 as we have only one main tab "Dashboard" and then two sub-tabs "General"(Can be changed) and "System Statistics".  

Thanks,

Sahil

Hi Sahil

At first glance, it looks good to me. Seems you have created a new tab System Statistics instead of using the existing dashboard.

Dear all,

I am working on pgadmin4 to let users see their system-level statistics on the dashboard. In this mail, I've attached the wireframe to display system stats on the existing dashboard.

I am open to hearing your thoughts and suggestions on the design.

Thanks,

Sahil
