Add additional services đź”—
If you want to collect data from other Azure services you need to add them as a custom service in the UI, or with the field additionalServices
if you’re using the API. Splunk Observability Cloud syncs resource types that you specify in services and custom services. If you add a resource type to both fields, Splunk Observability Cloud ignores the duplication.
Any resource type you specify as a custom service must meet the following criteria:
The resource must be an Azure GenericResource type.
If the resource type has a hierarchical structure, only the root resource type is a GenericResource. For example, a Storage Account type can have a File Service type, which in turn can have a File Storage type. In this case, only Storage Account is a GenericResource.
The resource type stores its metrics in Azure Monitor. To learn more about Azure Monitor, refer to the Microsoft Azure documentation.
Azure services metric information đź”—
Metric names and descriptions are generated dynamically from data provided by Microsoft. See all details in Microsoft’s Supported metrics with Azure Monitor .
Every metric can either be a counter or a gauge, depending on what dimension is being looked at. If the MTS contains the dimension aggregation_type: total
or aggregation_type: count
, then it is sent as a counter. Otherwise, it is sent as a gauge. To learn more, see Metric types and Metric time series.
Azure functions metrics đź”—
Splunk Observability Cloud supports Azure functions metrics. For more information about Azure Functions, refer to Microsoft’s Azure Functions documentation .
Azure Monitor publishes Azure functions metrics under Microsoft.Web/sites
. To distinguish specific function metrics, Splunk Observability Cloud automatically adds the dimension is_Azure_Function
to them. For the full list of metrics, see Microsoft’s Supported metrics for Microsoft.Web/sites .
Organization metrics đź”—
Splunk Observability Cloud organization metrics monitor data related to your Azure integration, such as the number of metric time series (MTS) your integration has created. The names of organization metrics all start with the string sf.org.num.azure
. To learn more about these metrics, see View organization metrics for Splunk Observability Cloud.
