Application Insights, a feature of Azure Monitor, is an extensible Application Performance Management (APM) service for web developers on multiple platforms.
Application Insights is used to monitor your live web application. Characteristics include:
- Automatic detection of performance anomalies.
- Powerful analytics tools to help you diagnose issues and to understand what users actually do with your app.
- Designed to help you continuously improve performance and usability.
- Works for apps on a wide variety of platforms including .NET, Node.js and Java EE, hosted on-premises, hybrid, or any public cloud.
- Integrates with your DevOps process, and has connection points to a variety of development tools.
- Monitors and analyzes telemetry from mobile apps by integrating with Visual Studio App Center.

Supported metrics
OpsRamp Metric | Metric Display Name | Unit | Aggregation Type |
---|---|---|---|
azure_availability_results_duration Percentage of availability for the storage service or the specified API operation. Availability is calculated by taking the TotalBillableRequests value and dividing it by Number of applicable requests, including those that produced unexpected errors. All unexpected errors result in reduced availability for the storage service or the specified API operation. | Test duration | MilliSeconds | Average |
azure_availability_results_percentage The availability metric shows the percentage of the web test runs that didnt detect any issues. | Availability result percentage | percent | Average |
azure_availability_results_count The availability tests metric reflects Count of the web tests runs by Azure Monitor. | Availability result count | Count | Count |
azure_billing_meters_telemetry_count Number of data points sent to this Application Insights resource. This metric is processed with a latency of up to two hours. | Data point count | Count | Total |
azure_billing_meters_telemetry_size Volume of data sent to this Application Insights resource. This metric is processed with a latency of up to two hours. | Data point volume | Bytes | Total |
azure_browser_timings_network_duration Time between user request and network connection. Includes DNS lookup and transport | Page load network connect time | MilliSeconds | Average |
azure_browser_timings_processing_duration Time between receiving the last byte of a document until the DOM is loaded. Async | Client processing time | MilliSeconds | Average |
azure_browser_timings_receive_duration Time between the first and last bytes, or until disconnection. | Receiving response time | MilliSeconds | Average |
azure_browser_timings_send_duration Time between network connection and receiving the first byte. | Send request time | MilliSeconds | Average |
azure_browser_timings_total_duration Time from user request until DOM, stylesheets, scripts and images are loaded. | Browser page load time | MilliSeconds | Average |
azure_dependencies_count Count of calls made by the application to external resources. | Dependency calls | Count | Count |
azure_dependencies_duration Duration of calls made by the application to external resources. | Dependency duration | MilliSeconds | Average |
azure_dependencies_failed Count of failed dependency calls made by the application to external resources. | Dependency failures | Count | Count |
azure_page_views_count Count of page views | Count of page views | Count | Count |
azure_page_views_duration Page view load time | Page view load time | MilliSeconds | Average |

azure_performance_counters_requests_in_queue Length of the application request queue. | HTTP requests in application queue | Count | Average |
azure_performance_counters_requests_per_second Rate of all requests to the application per second from ASP.NET. | HTTP request rate | CountPerSecond | Average |
azure_performance_counters_exceptions_per_second Count of handled and unhandled exceptions reported to windows, including .NET exceptions and unmanaged exceptions that are converted into .NET exceptions. | Exception rate | CountPerSecond | Average |
azure_performance_counters_process_io_bytes_per_second Total bytes per second read and written to files, network and devices. | Process IO rate | BytesPerSecond | Average |
azure_performance_counters_process_cpu_percentage Percentage of elapsed time that all process threads used the processor to execute instruction. This can vary between 0 to 100. This metric indicates the performance of w3wp process alone. | Process CPU | Percent | Average |
azure_performance_counters_processor_cpu_percentage Percentage of time that the processor spends in non-idle threads. | Processor time | Percent | Average |
azure_performance_counters_memory_available_bytes Physical memory immediately available for allocation to a process or for system use. | Available memory | Bytes | Average |
azure_performance_counters_process_private_bytes Memory exclusively assigned to the monitored applications processes. | Process private bytes | Bytes | Average |
azure_requests_count This metric reflects Number of incoming server requests that were received by your web application. | Server request count | Count | Counter |
azure_requests_duration Time between receiving an HTTP request and finishing sending the response. | Server response time | MilliSeconds | Average |
azure_requests/failed Count of HTTP requests marked as failed. In most cases these are requests with a response code >= 400 and not equal to 401. | Failed requests | Count | Count |
azure_exceptions_count Combined count of all uncaught exceptions. | Exceptions | Count | Total |
