# Microsoft Azure monitoring Monitor your Azure services effortlessly with Applications Manager. Gain real-time insights, ensure availability, optimize Microsoft Azure performance, and streamline costs—all from a single console. Say goodbye to blind spots and hello to seamless user experiences. ![Introduction to Mocrosoft Azure Monitoring with ManageEngine Applications Manager](https://www.manageengine.com/products/applications_manager/images/mam-banner-video-thumbnail.png) ## Full-stack monitoring for Microsoft Azure Microsoft Azure is a versatile cloud computing platform offering a wide array of services crucial for business operations. From hosting applications to managing data and analytics, Azure plays a pivotal role in modern IT infrastructure. However, effective Microsoft Azure monitoring is essential to ensure optimal performance and availability of services. Relying solely on native monitoring tools, such as Azure Monitor, Azure platform logs, and Azure Diagnostics, presents several challenges for organizations managing their Microsoft Azure environments. While these tools offer valuable insights into specific aspects of the infrastructure, they often fall short in providing comprehensive visibility across hybrid or multi-cloud environments. With Applications Manager, you can seamlessly monitor the performance, availability, and health of your Azure resources from a single, centralized platform. Our real-time monitoring capabilities provide instant visibility into Azure services, allowing organizations to quickly identify and resolve issues before they impact operations. ## Gain all your insights in one place Streamline the monitoring of Azure services in hybrid environments by effortlessly tracking performance across a diverse range of Microsoft Azure service categories, including: ### Analytics ![Microsoft Azure monitoring](https://www.manageengine.com/products/applications_manager/images/mam-analytics-widjets.svg) Easily track critical parameters like login attempts, link latency, SQL pools, big data pools, and more with our [Azure Synapse Analytics](https://www.manageengine.com/products/applications_manager/azure-synapse-analytics-monitoring.html) monitoring feature. Rightly scale big data pools by understanding the memory allocated for each of them and their provisioning state. ### Compute services ![Services](https://www.manageengine.com/products/applications_manager/images/mam-compute-services-widgets.svg) Efficiently monitor various Azure compute services, including [Azure Functions](https://www.manageengine.com/products/applications_manager/azure-functions-monitoring.html), [Azure Virtual Machines](https://www.manageengine.com/products/applications_manager/azure-virtual-machine-vm-monitoring.html), [Azure App Services](https://www.manageengine.com/products/applications_manager/azure-app-service-monitoring.html), and [Azure VM Scale Sets](https://www.manageengine.com/products/applications_manager/azure-vmss-monitoring.html). Keep track of performance metrics like function execution count, network errors, memory faults, and more to proactively identify issues and ensure smooth Azure compute operations. ### Containers ![Microsoft Azure monitor](https://www.manageengine.com/products/applications_manager/images/mam-containers-widgets.svg) Gain holistic insight into [Azure Kubernetes](https://www.manageengine.com/products/applications_manager/azure-kubernetes-monitoring.html) service stats like node pool usage, pod status, persistent volumes, container age, out of memory errors, and more. Understand the overall performance of the applications running on your Azure Kubernetes services, receive alerts when performance patterns deviate, and fix issues faster. ### Database ![Microsoft Azure performance](https://www.manageengine.com/products/applications_manager/images/mam-database-widgets.svg) Get an overview of all your [Azure database](https://www.manageengine.com/products/applications_manager/azure-database-monitoring.html) instances, monitor key metrics, automate tasks, and ensure high availability for seamless database operations and optimal performance. ### Network ![Microsoft Azure monitoring tool](https://www.manageengine.com/products/applications_manager/images/mam-network-widgets.svg) Monitor your Azure [network infrastructure resources](https://www.manageengine.com/products/applications_manager/azure-network-infrastructure-monitoring.html) including application gateways, ExpressRoute, firewalls, network interfaces, and virtual network gateways. Additionally, gain in-depth visibility into [network management and content delivery resources](https://www.manageengine.com/products/applications_manager/azure-network-management-delivery-monitoring.html) hosted on Azure by tracking connections, DNS zones, VNets, CDN instances, WAF requests, endpoint health status, and more. ### Storage ![Monitor Microsoft Azure performance](https://www.manageengine.com/products/applications_manager/images/mam-storage-widgets.svg) Eliminate any threats affecting the durability, availability, or scalability of your [Microsoft Azure Standard and Premium Storage accounts](https://www.manageengine.com/products/applications_manager/azure-premium-storage-monitoring.html) by tracking vital stats of your blobs, tables, files, queues, and tables. ## Accelerate your Azure cloud migrations ![Microsoft Azure performance monitor](https://www.manageengine.com/products/applications_manager/images/mam-accelerate-widgets.svg) Streamline your Azure cloud migration strategy by gaining necessary insights into your current infrastructure, application dependencies, and performance metrics. Applications Manager will help you: ### Assess Get started monitoring quickly by discovering all the hosts, processes, applications, and services running within your Microsoft Azure environment. Understand dependencies, establish relationships between them, and assess the overall health and impact potential of resources. ### Strategize Develop your migration plan and determine which migration approach suits each workload. Establish and track key performance metrics, like response time, throughput, resource utilization, and more, to measure success. ### Migrate and monitor Get complete visibility into your hybrid cloud environment before, during, and after migration to Azure. Monitor Microsoft Azure resource provisioning, backup, and recovery details; address any performance bottlenecks; and ensure data integrity and continuity during migration. Ensure benchmarks are met by monitoring your Azure services side by side. ## Troubleshoot Azure performance issues quickly ![Microsoft Azure performance monitoring tool](https://www.manageengine.com/products/applications_manager/images/mam-troubleshoot-widgets.svg) Proactively diagnose and fix issues across your Azure cloud infrastructure before they affect your business.
