Introduction

An Azure Monitor workspace provides a dedicated environment for storing and analyzing monitoring data. Unlike Log Analytics workspaces, Azure Monitor workspaces are currently optimized for Prometheus metrics, enabling scalable ingestion, querying, and visualization of container and infrastructure metrics without requiring users to manage underlying infrastructure.

Use the OpsRamp Azure Public Cloud integration to discover Azure Monitor workspaces and collect relevant metrics.
