    Pro-active notification if data collection stops

    Challenge: In normal operation, there is no need to constantly check, if data collection is up and running and healthy. In some cases, data collection can stop for any particular reason, but there is right now no possibility to see this or receive...

    Track activity for a client

    Managing client and client credentials would be improved if activity information was made available. At the very least, "last seen" would help identify if clients are no longer being used. Additional information would be useful for auditing and se...
