Abstract

The disclosed embodiments relate to a system and method of refreshing metrics. The method may comprise obtaining a plurality of data elements that comprise information about a process and computing a plurality of metrics from a plurality of mappings, each of the plurality of mappings relating to an operation on at least one of the plurality of data elements. Each of the plurality of metrics may have a refresh rate. Additionally, the method may comprise analyzing the refresh rate of the plurality of metrics to identify at least one shared refresh interval between groups of the plurality of metrics, identifying at least one common mapping between the plurality of metrics, and periodically refreshing the plurality of metrics, accounting for the at least one shared refresh interval and the at least one common mapping between the plurality of metrics.
