Key FeaturesMonitor Azure-native, hybrid, and multi-cloud infrastructure effectivelyDesign proactive incident responses and visualization dashboards for configuring, optimizing, and monitoring dataImplement strategies for monitoring Azure applications using real-world case studiesPurchase of the print or Kindle book includes a free PDF eBookBook Description
Cloud observability is complex and costly due to the use of hybrid and multi-cloud infrastructure as well as various Azure tools, hampering IT teams' ability to monitor and analyze issues. The authors distill their years of experience with Microsoft to share the strategic insights and practical skills needed to optimize performance, ensure reliability, and navigate the dynamic landscape of observability on Azure.
You'll get an in-depth understanding of cloud observability and Azure Monitor basics, before getting to grips with the configuration and optimization of data sources and pipelines for effective monitoring. You'll learn about advanced data analysis techniques using metrics and the Kusto Query Language (KQL) for your logs, design proactive incident response strategies with automated alerts, and visualize reports via dashboards. Using hands-on examples and best practices, you'll explore the integration of Azure Monitor with Azure Arc and third-party tools, such as Datadog, Elastic Stack, or Dynatrace. You'll also implement artificial intelligence for IT Operations (AIOps) and secure monitoring for hybrid and multi-cloud environments, aligned with emerging trends.
By the end of this book, you'll be able to develop robust and cost-optimized observability solutions for monitoring your Azure infrastructure and apps using Azure Monitor.
