Azure SQL Elastic Pool

The Azure SQL Elastic Pools are a simple, cost-effective solution for managing and scaling multiple databases that have varying and unpredictable usage demands. This integration helps in monitoring resource utilization of your elastic pools.

Log and metric types

For Azure SQL Elastic pools, you can collect the following metrics:

Setup

Azure service sends monitoring data to Azure Monitor, which can then stream data to Eventhub. Sumo Logic supports:

You must explicitly enable diagnostic settings for each Azure SQL Elastic pool you want to monitor. You can forward metrics 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/SQLElasticPool/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.

  1. Configure an HTTP Source.
  2. Configure and deploy the ARM Template.
  3. Export metrics to Event Hub. Perform below steps for each Azure SQL Elastic Pool that you want to monitor.
    • Choose Stream to an event hub as destination.
    • Select Basic.
    • 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.

Troubleshooting
