What Is Azure Monitor?
Azure Monitor is Microsoft Azure’s software as a service-based monitoring solution. It’s an efficient way to gain insights into the health, performance and availability of Azure resources, applications and services. It typically requires minimal efforts and helps get visibility into the overall reliability and performance of the applications we relied on. In addition, Azure Monitor provides powerful tools for root-cause analysis, allowing IT teams to develop strategies to identify, analyze and fix any problems quickly and effectively.
How Can Azure Monitor Help in Logistics Monitoring and Auditing API Activity?
When it comes to logistics, Azure Monitor enables us to access automation, logging and analysis of services, apps, and data. Here’s how it can help with logistics monitoring and auditing API activity:
- Real-Time Alerts: Azure Monitor can be integrated with other popular cloud services to provide real-time alerts, alarms and warnings when any significant changes occur. This helps businesses detect problems and outages in their API services and applications quickly, saving the time and resources required for manual monitoring.
- Performance Metrics: Logistics companies can integrate Azure Monitor with their existing data-sets. This way, they can quickly track performance metrics such as latency, availability, scalability, etc. Thid helps in understanding the current state of their services and applications, as well as retrieving historical data for comparison and trend analysis.
- Root-Cause Analysis: Azure Monitor provides comprehensive root-cause analysis to identify the source of bugs, errors, and other issues. This allows businesses to promptly address any problems and ensure the best performance for their services and applications.
- Security Monitoring and Auditing: Logistics companies can use Azure Monitor to monitor the security of their services and applications, as well as audit the activity of users and services. If any unauthorized access or suspicious behavior is detected, Azure Monitor can help identify the source and take action accordingly.
