A company has a hybrid ASP.NET Web API application that is based on a software as a service (SaaS) offering.
Users report general issues with the data. You advise the company to implement live monitoring and use ad hoc queries on stored JSON data. You also advise the company to set up smart alerting to detect anomalies in the data.
You need to recommend a solution to set up smart alerting.
What should you recommend?
Azure Application Insights, a feature of Azure Monitor, is a robust Application Performance Management (APM) service intended for developers and DevOps professionals. It provides the capability to monitor live applications and includes features to automatically detect performance anomalies. Additionally, Azure Monitor Logs offers powerful analytics tools to diagnose issues and understand user interactions with the application. This combination ensures effective live monitoring and smart alerting to detect anomalies in the data.
You have an Azure subscription that is linked to an Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) tenant. The subscription contains 10 resource groups, one for each department at your company.
Each department has a specific spending limit for its Azure resources.
You need to ensure that when a department reaches its spending limit, the compute resources of the department shut down automatically.
Which two features should you include in the solution? Each correct answer presents part of the solution.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
To ensure compute resources are automatically shut down when a department's spending limit is reached, you should utilize Azure Monitor alerts and Cost Management budgets. Cost Management budgets allow you to create spending thresholds for each department. When these thresholds are exceeded, Azure Monitor alerts can trigger actions, such as shutting down resources through configured action groups. Combining these two features provides a comprehensive solution to monitor and enforce spending limits while taking appropriate automated actions.
HOTSPOT -
You have an Azure subscription that contains the resources shown in the following table.
You create an Azure SQL database named DB1 that is hosted in the East US region.
To DB1, you add a diagnostic setting named Settings1. Settings1 archives SQLInsights to storage1 and sends SQLInsights to Workspace1.
For each of the following statements, select Yes if the statement is true, Otherwise, select No.
Hot Area:
Box 1: No -
You archive logs only to Azure Storage accounts.
Box 2: Yes -
Box 3: Yes -
Sending logs to Event Hubs allows you to stream data to external systems such as third-party SIEMs and other log analytics solutions.
Note: A single diagnostic setting can define no more than one of each of the destinations. If you want to send data to more than one of a particular destination type
(for example, two different Log Analytics workspaces), then create multiple settings. Each resource can have up to 5 diagnostic settings.

HOTSPOT -
You deploy several Azure SQL Database instances.
You plan to configure the Diagnostics settings on the databases as shown in the following exhibit.
Use the drop-down menus to select the answer choice that completes each statement based on the information presented in the graphic.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Hot Area:
In the exhibit, the SQLInsights data is configured to be stored in Azure Log Analytics for 90 days. However, the question is asking for the ג€maximumג€ amount of time that the data can be stored which is 730 days.
Your company uses Microsoft System Center Service Manager on its on-premises network.
You plan to deploy several services to Azure.
You need to recommend a solution to push Azure service health alerts to Service Manager.
What should you include in the recommendation?
To recommend a solution for pushing Azure service health alerts to Microsoft System Center Service Manager (SCSM), you should include the IT Service Management Connector (ITSM). ITSM is designed to integrate Azure alerts with various IT service management tools, including SCSM. It enables you to create work items in your ITSM tool based on Azure alerts, allowing for seamless incident management and response within your existing workflow.
