- Quick configuration setup — On the Obcervant screen, you can easily add new configurations. See Obcervant.
- Choose a set of servers and a metric to create forecasts for.
- Set the lookback period to define the amount of data to be used.
- Specify thresholds for when signals will be triggered over a period.
- Signal generation — The Forecaster app can trigger two types of signals. See Signals.
