Microsoft Azure Administrator Associate AZ-104 Practice Question

VM insights in Azure Monitor is the correct feature for this task. It is designed to monitor the performance and health of virtual machines and virtual machine scale sets by collecting and analyzing key metrics and logs. It provides pre-built workbooks and performance charts that visualize CPU, memory, disk, and network utilization, which helps in diagnosing performance bottlenecks. Azure Monitor Alerts is used for proactively notifying you of specific conditions, not for in-depth performance analysis. Azure Monitor Logs is the underlying data platform where performance data is stored and can be queried, but it does not provide the pre-built visualizations offered by VM insights. Application Insights is an application performance management (APM) service that focuses on monitoring application code, not the underlying VM infrastructure metrics.
