What purpose does EAE Plugin serve?

The purpose of the EAE Plugin is to provide ECE components with statistical information from EAE. Below is a list of ECE components using EAE Plugin and for what purpose:

Escenic Content Studio

Escenic Content Studio will automatically use the EAE Plugin to connect to EAE if EAE Plugin is found. Studio will use the plugin to retrieve page view statistics for articles and sections. This information will be presented in the section editor, where Studio users can see the pageview statistics for the section and its desked articles.

EAE Query Service Client

The plug-in installs the EAE Query Service Client in the global class path of the Content Engine and adds the EAE Query Service Taglib to all publications. Please refer to the Escenic Analysis Engine documentation for a discussion of these components.
