Microsoft Azure Solutions Architect Expert AZ-305 Practice Question
Your company runs a multi-tier workload that consists of an Azure App Service web app, several microservices hosted on Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS), and an Azure SQL Database. Operations engineers complain that diagnosing end-to-end latency requires switching between several monitoring tools. You must provide a single service that can automatically correlate requests across the web app, AKS pods, and database calls, supports Kusto-based queries, and offers customizable dashboards, all with minimal code changes. Which monitoring solution should you recommend?
Enable Azure Monitor Application Insights for the web app and AKS (using the Kubernetes extension or OpenTelemetry) and send all telemetry to a single Log Analytics workspace.
Enable Azure Network Watcher and use Connection Monitor to trace network traffic between the application components.
Create Azure Monitor metrics alerts on each resource and archive all diagnostic logs to Azure Storage for later analysis.
Deploy Azure Monitor Container Insights for the AKS cluster and enable platform metrics for App Service and SQL Database.
Application Insights is part of Azure Monitor and provides automatic instrumentation for Azure App Service, supported languages in AKS containers (through the Azure Monitor OpenTelemetry Distro or the Application Insights Kubernetes extension), and Azure SQL Database dependencies. When all components send telemetry to the same Log Analytics workspace, the service automatically propagates operation and parent IDs, enabling distributed tracing that links client requests to downstream calls. Analysts can use Kusto Query Language (KQL) in the workspace to build queries and dashboards. Container Insights or Network Watcher focus on infrastructure or network data and do not give request-level correlation. Metrics alerts and raw diagnostic log storage offer no automatic trace correlation or interactive analysis features.
