The Admin Dashboard serves as the primary oversight hub for your search engine, providing real-time data on system performance, user engagement, and the tangible environmental benefits of your “Surgical Indexing” model.
📊 Real-Time Cache & Asset Statistics
The dashboard provides a granular look at how much data your server is locally managing to ensure millisecond response times:
- Database Cache: You can track the exact number of entries and total file size for every search category, including Web, Audio, Image, and Video searches.
- Asset Management: Beyond database entries, the dashboard monitors the size of physical assets (like image and video thumbnails) stored on your server, ensuring you always know your storage footprint.
📈 Traffic & System Health
Keep a pulse on your platform’s growth and technical reliability with dedicated monitoring sections:
- Search Analytics: View a breakdown of page views by type, Web, Image, Video, Audio, News, and Shopping, since launch, along with a total count for the last 30 days.
- Feature Status: A quick-view panel shows which search features are currently enabled or disabled. If a feature is inactive, it is automatically hidden from your site’s frontend navigation.
- Cron Job Monitoring: The dashboard tracks critical background processes, such as news feed updates and cache cleanups, flagging if a task is “On Time” or “Overdue”.
🌍 Environmental Impact Tracking
One of the most unique features of the dashboard is the Environmental Impact panel. It quantifies the sustainability of your “Learn Once, Serve Forever” logic by comparing your cached results to the high energy demands of conventional search engines:
- Total Savings: Track the total Power (kWh), CO2 (kg), and Water (L) saved since your site went live.
- Savings by Type: See the specific environmental contribution of each cache hit. For example, every time a user views a cached Web search, the dashboard calculates the exact milliliter of water and watt-hour of electricity saved.
- No-Indexing Advantage: The system even tracks the “Minutes Saved” by utilizing a no-indexing approach, further highlighting the efficiency of your surgical data model.
🛠 Administrative Control
The dashboard is designed for easy navigation, providing direct links to manage cron jobs or enable disabled search features through their respective settings tabs. It serves as a starting point for all administrative tasks, ensuring you have the data needed to optimize your search engine’s performance and profitability.
