Modularize a Dashboard?!?

In an effort to speed up the viewing of the Commander's Dashboard, we are breaking up the application into separate modules.

From Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dashboard_(management_information_systems)

In management information systems, a dashboard is "an easy to read, often single page, real-time user interface, showing a graphical presentation of the current status (snapshot) and historical trends of an organization's or computer appliances key performance indicators to enable instantaneous and informed decisions to be made at a glance."

I could understand clicking on a section on the dashboard to get more detailed data for a section but...

Exactly. I can get detailed reports if I need them. I use the dashboard to get a quick snapshot. I never had issues with load times before.

I would imagine that the dashboard gets bogged down when viewing wing and region data sets, but it now takes this lowly squadron commander nine times longer to view the same data than it did yesterday.  And I'm not seeing any noticeable increase in the load times of any of the individual pages.

Meh, a dashboard doesn't have to be a quick-click, one-page setup.

But I'm curious as to what the changes will be to ensure you can view the materials you need without having to navigate through 10 pages.

"[N]avigating through 10 pages," IS the change.  Data that used to be visible on one screen now requires clicking through nine screens to see all of it.

After I complained to the Help Desk, a link was added for "Full View", which shows everything.

A nice resolution. Tip 'o the hat to NHQ IT
