Optimizing telemetry volume

A method of optimizing telemetry volume for an application product, the method comprising:

• receiving, by a volume calculation service, identification of an event that occurs during execution of the application product by a client device, wherein the volume calculation service determines an event frequency (EF) and a margin of error (MOE) for the event based on an event volume, and generates a mapping table for the application product, the mapping table including a plurality of EFs and MOEs to be mapped to a plurality of sampling rates spanning a plurality of pivots;
• generating, by a configuration service, a configuration for the client device that includes the EF, the MOE, and the mapping table;
• fetching, by the client device, the configuration from the configuration service to obtain the EF, the MOE, and the mapping table;
• and
• determining, by the client device, an optimized sampling rate from the plurality of sampling rates that maps to the EF and the MOE for the event;
• wherein the client device generates telemetry according to the optimized sampling rate in a manner that reduces the telemetry volume while maintaining tracking of the event within the telemetry.

A client device comprising:

• a processor;
• and
• a memory storing executable instructions which, when executed by the processor, cause the processor, alone or in combination with other processors, to perform operations of:
• receiving, by a volume calculation service, identification of an event that occurs during execution of an application product by the client device, wherein the volume calculation service determines an event frequency (EF) and a margin of error (MOE) for the event based on an event volume, and generates a mapping table for the application product, the mapping table including a plurality of EFs and MOEs to be mapped to a plurality of sampling rates spanning a plurality of pivots;
• generating, by a configuration service, a configuration for the client device that includes the EF, the MOE, and the mapping table;
• fetching, by the client device, the configuration from the configuration service to obtain the EF, the MOE, and the mapping table;
• and
• determining, by the client device, an optimized sampling rate from the plurality of sampling rates that maps to the EF and the MOE for the event;
• wherein the client device generates telemetry according to the optimized sampling rate in a manner that reduces telemetry volume while maintaining tracking of the event within the telemetry.
