As its dashboard, Stream Data Platform - AF uses Flex Dashboard, which consists of the following two applications.

• Dashboard Server
  Dashboard Server is an application that is executed by the dashboard output connector, and receives the results of stream data processing. You establish communications between the two products by entering a command on the server on which Stream Data Platform - AF runs.
  
• Dashboard Viewer
  Dashboard Viewer is an application that provides a GUI interface for displaying stream data processing results on a Web page. To use it, you download it to a client Web browser. The content and layout displayed by Dashboard Viewer are controlled by the definitions in the Dashboard Viewer window layout file.
  

The following figure shows the configuration of Flex Dashboard

The dashboard output connector formats the data that it receives and then passes the formatted data to Dashboard Server. Dashboard Server passes the data to Dashboard Viewer so that the browser can display the results output by the stream data processing system on the dashboard.
