Log Analytics

This post will explain the improvements that Microsoft has made by making the next-generation alert system of Azure generally available.

Aidan Finn walks you through how to deploy an Azure Log Analytics workspace so that you can prepare the foundation of monitoring machines and services both on-premises, in (any) the cloud, and in Azure.

Aidan Finn shows you how to deploy an Azure Logs Analytics, otherwise known as Operations Management Suite (OMS), agent to a Windows Server machine that is running outside of Azure.

In this post, Aidan will show you two ways to deploy Azure Log Analytics (OMS) monitoring to Azure virtual machine, and to some of the services running on those machines.

Aidan explains a bit of the history of how System Center Advisor (SCA) has evolved into Azure Log Analytics (OMS). Microsoft is rapidly adding solutions to Log Analytics (OMS) so it can eventually replace SCOM.
