Integration and Hybrid Monitoring

Abstract

In previous chapters, we looked at Azure Monitor end-to-end monitoring, alerting, insight, and visualization capabilities. We also looked at which features can be leveraged in a given scenario. It is, however, important to realize that enterprises already have invested in and are using existing monitoring tools and security systems for their on-premises IT estate. In order to leverage the existing investment and to achieve the benefits of the cloud, Azure Monitor needs to integrate with these systems. In this chapter, we will look at some of these systems and how Azure Monitor integrates with them. We will also explore a monitoring scenario with Azure resources and some key implementation steps.
