 # Azure Monitor naming and terminology changes
-Significant changes have been made to Azure Monitor recently, with different services being consolidated in order to simplify monitoring for Azure customers. This article describes recent name and terminology changes in Azure Monitor documentation.
+In Azure Monitor, different services were consolidated to simplify monitoring for Azure customers. This article describes name and terminology changes in Azure Monitor documentation.
 
-## October 2019 - Diagnostic Log to Resource Log
-"Diagnostic logs" were changed to "resource logs" to better match what is actually being collected. The term "diagnostic settings" remains the same.

-## February 2019 - Log Analytics terminology
-After the consolidation of different services under Azure Monitor, we're taking the next step by modifying terminology in our documentation to better describe the Azure Monitor service and its different components. 
+## February 2019: Log Analytics terminology
+After the consolidation of different services under Azure Monitor, we modified the terminology. Now the documentation better describes the Azure Monitor service and its different components.
 
 ### Log Analytics
-Azure Monitor log data is still stored in a Log Analytics workspace and is still collected and analyzed by the same Log Analytics service, but we are changing the term _Log Analytics_ in many places to _Azure Monitor logs_. This term better reflects its role in Azure Monitor and provides better consistency with [metrics in Azure Monitor](essentials/data-platform-metrics.md).

It also provides better consistency with [metrics in Azure Monitor](essentials/data-platform-metrics.md).
 
-The term _log analytics_ now primarily applies to the page in the Azure portal used to write and run queries and analyze log data. It's the functional equivalent of [metrics explorer](essentials/metrics-charts.md), which is the page in the Azure portal used to analyze metric data.

 ### Log Analytics workspaces
-[Workspaces](logs/manage-access.md) that hold log data in Azure Monitor are still referred to as Log Analytics workspaces. The **Log Analytics** menu in the Azure portal has been renamed to **Log Analytics workspaces** and is where you [create new workspaces](logs/quick-create-workspace.md) and configure data sources. Analyze your logs and other monitoring data in **Azure Monitor** and configure your workspace in **Log Analytics workspaces**.

No functionality has been removed from these services, and users can perform the same scenarios that they've always completed with no loss or compromise of any features.
+Documentation for each of these services was consolidated into a single set of content for Azure Monitor. Now you can find all the content for a particular monitoring scenario in a single location instead of having to use multiple sets of content. As the consolidated service evolves, the content will become more integrated.
