The image above shows the past 30 minutes of evaluation(s) count for the flag `flag1`.

## Considerations

It is important to note that you are **required** to create a database called `flipt_analytics` so that Flipt will have a logically isolated instance to report data into without interrupting any of your possible existing data in other databases.
### Database

The reason for this is not just a separation of concerns on a general level, but for possible data migrations and other related things via data on a technical level.
It is important to note that we do *recommend** for you to a separate database for analytics produced by Flipt so that the data can logically isolated from the rest of your Clickhouse data.

The reason for this is not just a separation of concerns on a general level, but for possible data migrations and other related things via data on a technical level if changes do arise on our end.

### Origin of Analytics

Analytics are only produced currently as they pass through the server, which means if you use the [server sdks](/integration/server/rest) or the various [grpc sdks](/integration/server/grpc), analytical data will be sent to the backing store.

For client-side evaluation no metrics will be sent into clickhouse, but we are working on a feature to get it supported.
