Monitoring your Oracle Cloud Users

It’s not particularly easy to tell exactly what your users are up to in Oracle Cloud.

• If you’ve enabled auditing and written some audit reports you can see the changes users have made
• You can query a couple of tables to retrieve a user’s last logon date
• You can download the RUEI reports from the Cloud Console which give you summary PDFs (which have some useful stats, but you can’t really do much with it other than screenshot the graphs)

Each gives a partial picture, but I’ve always hankered for a little more. I do have a good solution – which I’ll write about soon – but it’s a paid service. I was intrigued recently when I saw the announcement for a free alternative. It was described as:

A free user behaviour analytics tool that helps you understand how users interact with your website through features such as session replays and heatmaps.

This sounded promising so I thought I’d give it a try.?
