Your company runs a microservices application on Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS). The development team uses Azure DevOps for deployments, and the operations team wants to query application logs and pipeline deployment records in a single place using KQL. You need to enable this capability with the least administrative overhead. What should you do?

Enable Azure Monitor for VMs on the AKS nodes and connect Azure DevOps to the same workspace.

Use Application Insights to collect AKS logs and Azure DevOps logs, then query them in the Azure portal.

Create a Log Analytics workspace and install the Azure Monitor agent on each AKS node to collect logs.

Configure Container Insights to send AKS logs to a Log Analytics workspace, and configure Azure DevOps to send pipeline logs to the same workspace.

Your company uses Azure DevOps for source control and CI/CD. The development team wants to monitor the health of their pipelines and get alerted when a deployment fails. They also want to see application telemetry from the deployed app in the same tool. What should you do?

Use Azure Monitor to create alerts on pipeline failures and integrate Application Insights with Azure DevOps.

Use Azure DevOps built-in pipeline reports and ignore application telemetry.

Use Azure Monitor Logs to query pipeline logs and create custom dashboards.

Use Application Insights to monitor pipelines by adding the SDK to the pipeline tasks.

A global e-commerce company has applications deployed in multiple Azure regions. The operations team wants to monitor application performance and infrastructure across all regions from a single dashboard. They also want to correlate performance issues with deployment events from Azure DevOps. You need to design a monitoring solution that minimizes complexity. What should you do?

Use Azure Monitor for VMs in each region and view them in a single workbook.

Use Azure Monitor Logs to query data from all regions without using Application Insights.

Use a single Application Insights resource and a single Log Analytics workspace for all regions.

Create separate Application Insights resources for each region and link them to a single dashboard.

A company has a legacy application running on Azure VMs. The application writes logs to local files. The operations team wants to collect these logs into Azure Monitor Logs and also monitor VM performance. They want to avoid installing multiple agents. What should you do?

Use Azure Monitor for VMs to collect log files and performance counters.

Use Application Insights to collect the log files and monitor VM performance.

Use the Azure Monitor agent to collect both the log files and performance counters, and enable VM Insights.

Use the Log Analytics agent to collect log files and enable VM Insights separately.
