Recovery Services vaults and Backup vaults send data to a common set of tables that are listed in this article. However, there are slight differences in the schema for Recovery Services vaults and Backup vaults (refer [this page](backup-azure-monitoring-built-in-monitor.md) for more details). Hence this section is split into multiple sub-sections, so that you can use the right queries depending on which workload or vault types you are looking to query.
