Azure Monitor Metrics Export is configurable through Data Collection Rules (DCR), which provides the capability to route Azure resource metrics data to Azure Storage Accounts, Azure Event Hubs and Azure Log Analytics Workspace for 18 resource types and 10 Azure public regions. Here are some key features and benefits of Azure Monitor Metrics Export –
- Easily scalable: DCR is the de facto collection configuration mechanism in Azure Monitor; it allows setting a collection config once and applying it at scale to many resources. DCR now provides an easier solution to span across subscriptions to export resources metrics at scale and provides flexibility if more resources need to be added in an existing DCR configuration.
- Flexibility on what to collect: Customers can filter collection with a few select metrics or all metrics for a given set of resources, allowing for volume and cost control. With the new enhanced experience, customers can easily access their most important metrics.
- Export with full fidelity and low latency: Resource metric data is exported with dimensional information which provides ease of correlation. This feature significantly improves the metrics export latency (~70%) compared to Diagnostic Settings.
