 # Profile production applications in Azure with Application Insights Profiler
 
-Diagnosing performance issues can be difficult, especially when your application is running on a production environment in the cloud. The cloud is dynamic. Machines come and go, and user input and other conditions are constantly changing. There's also potential for high scale. Slow responses in your application could be caused by infrastructure, framework, or application code handling the request in the pipeline.

-- Helps you identify the "hot" code path spending the most time handling a particular web request.

+Application Insights needs to track requests for your application to provide profiles for your application on the **Performance** page in the Azure portal. For applications built on already-instrumented frameworks (like ASP.NET and ASP.NET Core), Application Insights can automatically track requests.
 
 For other applications (like Azure Cloud Services worker roles and Azure Service Fabric stateless APIs), you need to track requests with code that tells Application Insights where your requests begin and end. Requests telemetry is then sent to Application Insights, which you can view on the **Performance** page. Profiles are collected for those requests.
