Abstract

An approach is provided for a data analysis and reporting. A data collection manager generates a graphical user interface (GUI) and displays the GUI on a display of a client device. The GUI includes a plurality of dialog boxes for receiving one or more user inputs. The data collection manager receives one or more file type selections via one or more first dialog boxes, and one or more target selections via one or more second dialog boxes, and then generates and deploys a collector. The collector is configured to: selectively determine one or more data files that have certain characteristics specified by the one or more file type selections and that are hosted on one or more target devices specified by the one or more target selections; collect the one or more data files from the target devices; and store the one or more data files in a network server.
