Just to ask a follow up question about Google Analytics. Say I have all of
my data (comm, coll, item views, bitstream downloads) for as long as I've
been collecting it in SOLR or Elastic Search (many years). Is it possible
to write a converter, and push this legacy information to Google Analytics?
i.e. GA has bulk ingest API's where I can push legacy/historical events in?
Also. What are people thinking would be a safe preservation location for
usage events? i.e. for people concerned about resources. Could it be
feasible to export all SOLR usage event data to log/usage-event.<date>.log,
and then have all new real-time usage events from now on written to
usage-event.log. Then when we need to populate a new statistics engine. We
could populate it by indexing usage.event.logs
>From my perspective, we've got 200GB+ of solr/ES indexes across instances,
plus memory and CPU and ES instances, and it would be nice to outsource
this work. Especially if GA is free.
