Enhancements to Insights in Azure Monitor

The past few months have seen a range of new capabilities added to Azure Monitor, most recently there has been some updates to Insights. Here is a quick round-up:

• The capability to send Application Insights Logs to a common Log Analytics Workspace is now in preview, this keeps platform, infrastructure and application logs together. This is another step forward in the integration of Application Insights and Log Analytics.
• Metrics already collected by Azure Monitor are now being used to provide further out of the box insights for Azure resources, built into workbooks. This platform can be used to customize insights and create interactive reports.
• Azure Monitor for Storage has become generally available. This provides health and capacity insights and monitoring of Azure Storage accounts. It has the capability to diagnose throttling, availability and latency issues.
