Both guest and host operating system logs are surfaced to users using Azure Monitor. They provide information about the status of host and guest operating systems.
The important resources from Azure related to monitoring are as follows:
- Azure Monitor
- Azure Application Insights
- Log Analytics, previously known as Operational Insights
There are other tools, such as System Center Operations Manager (SCOM), that are not part of the cloud feature but can be deployed on IaaS-based virtual machines to monitor any workload on Azure or an on-premise data center.
