 ## What is Azure Monitor?
 
 [Azure Monitor](/azure/azure-monitor/fundamentals/overview) is a comprehensive monitoring solution for collecting, analyzing, and responding to monitoring data from your cloud and on-premises environments. You can use Azure Monitor to maximize the availability and performance of your applications and services. Azure Monitor helps you understand how your applications are performing and allows you to manually and programmatically respond to system events.

-## Objectives
-
- -  **Task 1**: Create the virtual network.
- -  **Task 2**: Create the load balancer.
- -  **Task 3**: Create a backend pool.
- -  **Task 4**: Create a health probe.
- -  **Task 5**: Create a load balancer rule.
- -  **Task 6**: Create backend servers.
-    - Use a template to create the virtual machines. You can review the [lab template](https://github.com/MicrosoftLearning/AZ-700-Designing-and-Implementing-Microsoft-Azure-Networking-Solutions/blob/master/Allfiles/Exercises/M08/azuredeploy.json).
-    - Use Azure PowerShell to deploy the template. 
- -  **Task 7**: Add VMs to the backend pool.
- -  **Task 8**: Install IIS on the VMs.
- -  **Task 9**: Test the load balancer.
- -  **Task 10**: Create a Log Analytics Workspace.
- -  **Task 11**: Use Functional Dependency View.
- -  **Task 12**: View detailed metrics.
- -  **Task 13**: View resource health.
- -  **Task 14**: Configure diagnostic settings.
- -  **Task 15**: Clean up resources.
