The Calculation objective has two purposes:
To perform a mathematical calculation to determine if a property is compliant or to compare a property value with the threshold value to return a result
To determine if a key metric defined by an SLA metric catalog using data from an external data source is compliant
For health and compliance, the Calculation objective returns only breaches. Unlike other objectives, the Calculation objective does not produce values for outage counts, outage duration, availability, downtime, or health.
