Description: A series is a sequence of data points, typically ordered by time, used in data visualization tools to analyze trends and patterns. In a general context, a series can represent any type of metric that one wishes to monitor, such as CPU usage, network latency, or application traffic. Each data point in a series consists of a value and a timestamp, allowing users to observe how metrics change over time. Series are fundamental for data analysis, as they enable the identification of trends, anomalies, and behaviors over specific periods. Data visualization tools allow users to create interactive graphs and dashboards that clearly and understandably display these series. Additionally, series can be grouped and filtered to facilitate the analysis of complex data, making them an essential tool for data engineers, analysts, and system administrators looking to optimize the performance and efficiency of their applications and services.
