Abstract: A method of preconditioning time-series data for improved efficiency. The method includes repeatedly recognizing new time series entries for each of a plurality of tracked entities. For each of the plurality of tracked entities, a new time-series data entry for the tracked entity is promoted responsive to the new time-series data entry including a changed value in a normalized field. However, a previous time-series data entry for the tracked entity is maintained responsive to the new time-series data entry including an unchanged value in the normalized field. The method further incudes generating a synthetic time-series data entry for every tracked entity without a time-series data entry in a fixed time period.

Abstract: A collector is configured to obtain management data associated with a managed device. The collector formats the management data in a platform independent message and sends to a hardware/Operating System (OS) broker. The broker forwards the message to a hardware/OS agnostic agent, who is subscribed to receive the management data. The agent adds identifying information associated with the managed device to the management data of the message, packages the management data, and forwards the management data to a data collection server or an endpoint device where the management data with the identifying information may be processed by a remote management workflow for managing the managed device.
