I am looking at building a dashboard that will tell us if a device (screen) is Offline. We have 2000 devices that I use an API GET to grab the data. It is returned with various data points including 'Device name', 'BuildingName' and 'status' which are mostly what I need.
My current plan is to store the returned data in SQL Table or Azure table storage, and then build PowerBI to show / filter the data...
As my plan will be to check every 10 minutes or so.. and update the status of each device.. however this will mean that I won't have a history of when/how often the device goes offline.
How can I keep this history? I assume I will need to write a new row each time I check? That will be around 288,000 rows per day...
Does anyone have any other ideas on how I could achieve this?
I want to save the history rather than write over the object again and again..
Perhaps a 2nd table that records the history is needed?
