1. A computer-implemented method for real-time capture and analysis of data of real user experiences either accessing a website, or using a web-based application or a mobile app, via a plurality of client devices, each of the client devices being associated with a user, the computer-implemented method comprising:

  • receiving, in each of a plurality of collector servers, web page load time data values transmitted from the plurality of client devices, each web page load time data value representing a real user measurement (RUM) associated with an experience of the user on a web page of the website, or using the web-based application or the mobile app, the web page load time data value being transmitted while the user is on the web page, or using the web-based application or the mobile app, each of the collector servers being located in a network cloud remote to each of the client devices;

    for each web page load time data value received, incrementing a count in a corresponding one of a set of N, where N is an integer greater than 1, data buckets, each data bucket being defined in a memory resource for web page load time data values falling within a predetermined range of values, the set of N data buckets being arranged in an order of web page load time data value ranges;

    periodically transmitting, by each collector server, the count of each of the N data buckets to a unit over a network;

    aggregating, by the unit in a final set of N data buckets, all of the counts received from each collector server for each corresponding data bucket such that an ith ,data bucket, where i is an integer ranging from 1 to N, of the final set contains a sum of all of the ith data bucket counts received from all the collector servers; and

    rendering, on an analytic dashboard, a visual presentation in the form of a histogram of the aggregated counts of the web page load time data values, wherein a height of each bar of the histogram corresponds to an aggregated count of one or more of the N data buckets of the final set, the rendering being performed while the client devices are either accessing the website, or using the web-based application or the mobile app,wherein the rendering of the visual representation is performed in real-time concurrently with the on-going collection of the web page load time data values, within seconds or milliseconds from a time that the web page load time data values are fiat received in the plurality of collector servers, such that the histogram changes nearly instantaneously in response to new web page load time data values being received in the plurality of collector servers.
