You have an Azure subscription.
You plan to deploy a monitoring solution that will include the following:
• Azure Monitor Network Insights
• Application Insights
• Microsoft Sentinel
• VM insights
The monitoring solution will be managed by a single team.
What is the minimum number of Azure Monitor workspaces required?
To manage Azure Monitor Network Insights, Application Insights, Microsoft Sentinel, and VM insights, only a single Azure Monitor Log Analytics workspace is required. Each of these monitoring solutions can send their data to a common Log Analytics workspace. Using one workspace simplifies the management and analysis of collected data and allows a unified management by the monitoring team. There is no requirement for separate workspaces for each service unless there are specific needs for data segregation, which is not stated in the question.
A. 1 You only need a single Azure Monitor Log Analytics workspace for all these monitoring solutions. Here's why: - Azure Monitor Network Insights, Application Insights, Microsoft Sentinel, and VM insights, all of these components can send their data to a Log Analytics workspace. - The workspace is a unique environment for Azure Monitor log data. Each workspace has its own data repository and configuration, and data sources and solutions are configured to store their data in a workspace. Therefore, a single Azure Monitor Log Analytics workspace can be utilized to collect and analyze data from all the components of the monitoring solution. This will also enable a unified management and analysis of the collected data.
A single Log Analytics workspace might be sufficient for many environments that use Azure Monitor and Microsoft Sentinel.

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-monitor/logs/workspace-design#data-ownership If you require data segregation: Use a separate workspace for each data owner. If you don't require data segregation: Use a single workspace for all data owners.
Why not A?
A Minimum : 1 Ideal : 2 1 workspace for Azure Monitor Network Insights. This workspace will collect and store network telemetry data from your Azure resources. 1 workspace for Application Insights, Microsoft Sentinel, and VM insights. This workspace will collect and store application, security, and virtual machine telemetry data from your Azure resources. By doing this, you can: Improve performance. By separating the different types of telemetry data, you can optimize the performance of your queries. Improve security. By separating the different types of telemetry data, you can reduce the risk of unauthorized access. Improve compliance. By separating the different types of telemetry data, you can make it easier to comply with regulatory requirements.
The Correct answer is C Azure Monitor Network Insights requires a separate workspace. Application Insights requires a separate workspace. Microsoft Sentinel and VM insights can share a workspace.
This is what chatGPT says.
Then ChatpGPT is wrong in this case. You only need 1 workspace for all youse sources. I would advise reading the documentation and watching the video in the link bellow to get a correct understanding on how workspaces are used. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-monitor/logs/workspace-design

Based on the information provided, the minimum number of Azure Monitor workspaces required is 1. The key points: Azure Monitor Network Insights, Application Insights, Microsoft Sentinel, and VM insights can all be enabled within a single Azure Monitor workspace. Azure Monitor workspaces allow you to organize and manage monitoring data, configurations, and analytics. Since a single team will be managing the monitoring solution, a single workspace is sufficient. Multiple workspaces are only needed if you want to divide management responsibilities. All the mentioned monitoring services can be integrated into the same workspace. For example, you can ingest network and application logs into Microsoft Sentinel enabled in that workspace. VM insights can also be configured for the VMs to send data to the same workspace. Application Insights and Network Insights are natively integrated into the workspace.
A. No doubt.
A is correct
should be A
should be A
You can use a single workspace for all your data collection. You can also create multiple workspaces based on requirements such as: The geographic location of the data. Access rights that define which users can access data. Configuration settings like pricing tiers and data retention. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-monitor/logs/log-analytics-workspace-overview
Option A is correct.
I agree... Why not A?
Yes, I think it should be A
A, no doubt
When you enable VM insights on a single virtual machine or virtual machine scale set by using the Azure portal, you can select an existing workspace or create a new one
With workspace-based resources, Application Insights sends telemetry to a common Log Analytics workspace, providing full access to all the features of Log Analytics while keeping your application, infrastructure, and platform logs in a single consolidated location.
This question has no sense, depends by situations and strategies. From https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-monitor/logs/workspace-design 1) A single Log Analytics workspace might be sufficient for many environments that use Azure Monitor and Microsoft Sentinel. But many organizations will create multiple workspaces to optimize costs and better meet different business requirements. 2) Design strategy: Your design should always start with a single workspace to reduce the complexity of managing multiple workspaces and in querying data from them. 3) The decision whether to combine your operational data from Azure Monitor in the same workspace as security data from Microsoft Sentinel or separate each into their own workspace depends on your security requirements and the potential cost implications for your environment.
Depending on how important the data collected is and how much, multiple workspaces can be created. None of these details are present in the question, so we will consider none. One workspace should suffice until proven otherwise.
Correcta, A
Minimum is 1
I think it's A indeed.
I would go for A hence 1 https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-monitor/logs/workspace-design
Only workspace works for all monitoring solutions.
*one workspace
Today's exam question
The minimum number of Azure Monitor workspaces required for your monitoring solution is A. A single Azure Monitor workspace can handle multiple monitoring solutions, including Azure Monitor Network Insights, Application Insights, Microsoft Sentinel, and VM insights. This approach simplifies management and reduces complexity, making it easier for your team to handle all monitoring tasks from a centralized location.
Use 3 workspaces minimum when combining Sentinel + App Insights + VM/Network Insights. DCR (Data Collection Rules) are key for sharing workspaces efficiently between VM/Network Insights. Do not mix Sentinel with Application Insights in the same workspace.
