Use prebuilt or custom [summary rules](/azure/azure-monitor/logs/summary-rules) in Microsoft Sentinel to aggregate insights from large sets of data in any log tier, including the [auxiliary log tier](billing.md#auxiliary-logs), at a regular cadence.

We recommend that you [experiment with your summary rule query](hunts.md) in the **Logs** page before creating your rule. Verify that the query doesn't reach or near the [query limit](/azure/azure-monitor/logs/summary-rules#restrictions-and-limitations), and check that the query produces the intended schema and expected results. If the query is close to the query limits, consider using a smaller `binSize` to process less data per bin. You can also modify the query to return fewer records or remove fields with higher volume.
