Yesterday three different people came to me asking what type and how many browsers are our “users” using to access our content. Since our products load on about 50 – 80 million pages a day we have a pretty good sample size. And a hell of a lot of log files to collect and analyze. Since I already summarize this info on each server daily it was rather simple to gather these summaries and tally them for the month.
These calls are from one of our services that handles an average of about 50,000,000 calls per day. Of course these calls are spread across several web servers, so I took the daily summary from each server & combined them per day, then took these daily summaries and combined them for last month (October 2013). In total this represents only about 5-8% of our total daily calls, but this particular service is the first called by many of our products so it is the best place from which to gather info like user agent distribution.
