Bandwidth
- Description
-
Bandwidth refers to the network’s maximum data transfer capacity within a specific time frame. It is typically measured in terms of the amount of data that can be transmitted in one second, for example, megabits per second (Mbps).
When transferring telemetry data, the amount of data that can be sent over the network within a given time frame depends on the available bandwidth. For example, consider the bandwidth required to aggregate telemetry data from thousands of computers or transfer logs from high-volume sources over the network. Not to be confused with EPS (Events Per Second).
