Azure Monitor
Azure Monitor uses two fundamental data types—metrics and logs:
- You can analyze log data that Azure Monitor collects by using queries to quickly retrieve, consolidate, and analyze the collected data
- Azure Monitor offers a consolidated pipeline for routing any of your monitoring data into an SIEM tool
- Security Center automatically collects, analyzes, and integrates log data from your Azure resources
Configure Azure Log Analytics
- The Azure Log Analytics service helps you collect and analyze data generated by resources in your cloud and on-premises environments
- At the center of Log Analytics is the Log Analytics workspace, which is hosted in Azure
- Data sources and solutions create different record types, each with its own set of properties
- The connected sources are the computers and other resources that generate the data that Log Analytics collects
Configure diagnostic logging and log retention
- Azure Monitor makes two types of diagnostic logs available:
- Tenant logs
- Resource logs
- The content of these logs varies by Azure service and resource type
- These logs differ from the activity log that provides insight into the Azure Resource Manager operations on resources in your subscription
- Guest OS diagnostic logs are those collected by an agent running inside a VM or other supported resource type
