Delta : For values that always increase
Absloute : For values that can increase or decrease
Example : ifinpackets over a period of 5 mins .. this can not go down .
i.e X packets at start fo 5 min interval and Y at end of 5
min interval
then X is = or less than Y
Hence DELTA
Ablsoute : example : CPU util .. can be high or low
