-PM Mapper maps PM XML files to performance VES event by applying the mapper filtering information. Mapper filtering is configured during instantiation through cloudify manager.
-Mapper filtering is based on the PM dictionary fields.
+The PM Mapper performs data reduction, by filtering the PM telemetry data it receives.
+This filtering information is provided to the service as part of its configuration, and is used to identify desired PM measurements (measType) contained within the data.
+The service can accept an exact match to the measType or regex(java.util.regex) identifying multiple measTypes (it is possible to use both types simultaneously).
+If a filter is provided, any measurement that does not match the filter, will be ignored and a warning will be logged.
