Azure Analysis Services
Azure Analysis Services is a fully managed platform as a service (PaaS) that provides enterprise-grade data models in the cloud. This integration monitors server performance and tracks server events like start, stop, pause, restart, and delete.
Log and metric types
For Azure Analysis Services, you can collect the following logs and metrics:
- Engine logs
- Service logs
- Server Metrics. These metrics are available in Microsoft.AnalysisServices/servers namespace. For more information on supported metrics, refer to the Azure documentation.
Setup
Azure service sends monitoring data to Azure Monitor, which can then stream data to Eventhub. Sumo Logic supports:
- Logs collection from Azure Monitor using our Azure Event Hubs source.
- Metrics collection using our HTTP Logs and Metrics source via Azure Functions deployed using the ARM template.
You must explicitly enable diagnostic settings for each Azure Analysis Services server you want to monitor. You can forward logs to the same event hub provided they satisfy the limitations and permissions as described here.
When you configure the event hubs source or HTTP source, plan your source category to ease the querying process. A hierarchical approach allows you to make use of wildcards. For example: Azure/AnalysisServices/Logs
, Azure/AnalysisServices/Metrics
.
Configure metrics collection
In this section, you will configure a pipeline for shipping metrics from Azure Monitor to an Event Hub, on to an Azure Function, and finally to an HTTP Source on a hosted collector in Sumo Logic.
- Configure an HTTP Source.
- Configure and deploy the ARM Template.
- Export metrics to Event Hub. Perform below steps for each Azure Analysis Services server that you want to monitor.
- Choose
Stream to an event hub
as destination. - Select
AllMetrics
. - Use the Event hub namespace created by the ARM template in Step 2 above. You can create a new Event hub or use the one created by ARM template. You can use the default policy
RootManageSharedAccessKey
as the policy name.
- Choose
Configure logs collection
In this section, you will configure a pipeline for shipping diagnostic logs from Azure Monitor to an Event Hub.
- To set up the Azure Event Hubs source in Sumo Logic, refer to Azure Event Hubs Source for Logs.
- To create the Diagnostic settings in Azure portal, refer to the Azure documentation. Perform below steps for each Azure Analysis Services server that you want to monitor.
- Choose
Stream to an event hub
as the destination. - Select
Engine
andService
. - Use the Event hub namespace and Event hub name configured in previous step in destination details section. You can use the default policy
RootManageSharedAccessKey
as the policy name.
