Implement logging used by Azure Monitor

“

- [Instructor] Azure Monitor is our go-to resource in Azure for keeping an eye on our infrastructure and our applications. In terms of diagnostic settings, we've got metrics, which refers to time series data, as well as logs, which track events. Logs also can record sampled metrics. These data sources are going to be up to whoever designed the solution. That is, in Azure, the software engineers on each product determine what metrics to surface and what log events are good. You also, in Azure Monitor, can ingest logs from external services that you designed on PREM. Maybe you're hosting them in Azure or even another cloud. So long story short is that Azure Monitor and Log Analytics is designed for multi-cloud hybrid cloud monitoring. And in log analytics in particular, we use the Kusto Query Language, or KQL, to write queries that report and potentially alert on the state of our Azure resources and applications.
