In today\u2019s world of cloud-based architectures that are implemented through DevOps projects, developers, SREs, and operations staff must collectively define an effective cloud monitoring and logging strategy. This strategy should focus on identifying when service-level objectives (SLOs) and service-level agreements (SLAs) are not being met, likely negatively affecting the user experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cloud monitoring is&nbsp;<strong>a method of reviewing, observing, and managing the operational workflow in a cloud-based IT infrastructure<\/strong>. Manual or automated management techniques confirm the availability and performance of websites, servers, applications, and other cloud infrastructure. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a href=\"https:\/\/docs.microsoft.com\/en-us\/azure\/azure-monitor\/overview\/?WT.mc_id=AZ-MVP-5004750\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/docs.microsoft.com\/en-us\/azure\/azure-monitor\/media\/overview\/overview.png\" alt=\"Azure Monitor overview\"\/><\/a><figcaption><em><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/docs.microsoft.com\/en-us\/azure\/azure-monitor\/overview\/?WT.mc_id=AZ-MVP-5004750\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Azure Monitor Overview<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"what-you-can-do-with-logging-and-monitoring\">WHAT YOU CAN DO WITH logging and monitoring?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>Azure Monitor helps you maximize the availability and performance of your applications and services.
