Azure Resource Health and Utilization Monitoring
Monitoring Difficulties in Azure
”Has today’s data load & report refresh finished already? I need to know when, and how long it takes on average, so that I can set my meetings accordingly.” – asked the Team Lead the Developer.
“Let me check, but my query also runs so damn slow, maybe something is going on, I don’t know… I can’t really reach it either.”
“Isn’t it available? I need to use it ASAP. Anyway, if it’s so slow, why don’t we scale it up? We should know the exact utilization, because I want to avoid 2 things: being slow by constantly hitting the ceiling with current setup & throwing money out of the window by not using it at all.” – the Team Lead replied.
Since you are on this page this conversation is somewhat similar to you. There are partial solutions for this problem, where you can check status separately, but wouldn’t it be cool to see everything in on place in an Azure Dashboard? This is exactly what we offer.
