Analyzing Azure Monitor Log data in Azure Data Studio
In this 100% demo session, I will show you kql magic, kql kernel, and the recently released Azure Monitor Logs extension for Azure Data Studio to consume event logs of the Azure SQL database.
How do you consume the data once you enable event logging (auditing and diagnostic) for the Azure SQL database? How do you find anomalies to alert on, establish a baseline, look at trends?
In this 100% demo session, I will show you kql magic, kql kernel, and the recently released Azure Monitor Logs extension for Azure Data Studio to consume event logs of the Azure SQL database.
