The Squirrel Dashboard offers administrators a real-time, detailed overview of the platform’s performance and key metrics. It presents vital statistics such as the total archived data, transactions, and cost savings. Each widget is designed to give quick insights into how much data has been archived today, this month, and this year, as well as the number of transactions for both archiving and restoring data.
