Abstract: The flexible selection among analytics providers is described. In one example, an application is developed for use with a number of different analytics providers. After the application is developed, one or more of the analytics providers can be easily selected based on a constant defined in an analytics framework of the application. During execution of the application, the application can identify the selected analytics provider based on the predetermined constant in the analytics framework. When an event is triggered at a certain occasion or step during the process, the analytics framework can route the event to an event agent for the selected analytics provider. Further, the event agent can perform an event report call based on the event, where the event report call is tailored for the interface of the selected analytics provider by the event agent. The analytics provider can be easily changed by updating the predetermined constant.
