Azure Monitor and related services help teams observe, diagnose, and optimize cloud resources by centralizing metrics, logs, and traces.
Configure a Log Analytics workspace and verify data collection with example queries.

To configure Azure Monitor for an AKS cluster, set up a Log Analytics workspace and enable diagnostic settings to route metrics and logs. You can then use KQL queries to verify data collection and diagnose cluster performance issues.
The best way to analyze Application Insights telemetry is using KQL queries within a Log Analytics workspace. This approach centralizes traces and metrics, allowing you to query application performance data and diagnose issues across resources.
Set up alerts and workbooks by configuring diagnostic settings on Azure resources to send telemetry to a Log Analytics workspace. You can then create custom workbooks to visualize the collected metrics and configure alerts based on KQL query thresholds.
Yes, Azure Monitor centralizes metrics and logs across VMs, App Service, and databases. By configuring diagnostic settings and the Azure Monitor Agent (AMA), you can collect and analyze telemetry from multiple resource types in a single workspace.
Diagnostic settings and the Azure Monitor Agent (AMA) are required to route resource telemetry into a Log Analytics workspace. Without them, logs and metrics remain isolated, preventing centralized KQL analysis, alerting, and data retention controls.
Log Analytics workspace data retention is governed by configured retention policies. Best practices include setting appropriate retention periods to balance cost and historical analysis needs, ensuring you maintain enough telemetry for effective alerting and diagnostics.
