Microsoft Azure AI Search Monitoring

Microsoft Azure AI Search - An Overview

Azure AI Search (formerly Azure Cognitive Search) is a fully managed cloud search service that provides a rich query experience over private, heterogeneous content. Applications Manager's Microsoft Azure AI Search monitoring lets you track search latency, query throughput, throttling ratios, indexer document processing, skill execution, and index storage consumption — all in one place.
