<title>View cloud usage statistics</title>
<para>The Telemetry module provides user-level usage data for OpenStack-based clouds,
which can be used for customer billing, system monitoring, or alerts. Data can be
collected by notifications sent by existing OpenStack components (for example,
usage events emitted from Compute) or by polling the infrastructure (for example,
libvirt).
</para>
<note><para>You can only view metering statistics on the dashboard (available only to administrators). The Telemetry service
must be set up and administered through the <command>ceilometer</command> command-line
interface (CLI).

<para>For basic administration information, refer to the "Measure Cloud Resources" chapter in the
