-A major part of the job of a database administrator is proper performance monitoring. This task does not change when moving to a cloud platform. While Azure offers tools for monitoring, you may lack some specific controls around hardware that you would have in an on-premises environment which makes understanding how to identify and resolve performance bottlenecks while in Azure SQL that is much more critical.

-The following examples are focused on an Azure Virtual Machine. When you deploy an Azure Virtual Machine from the Azure Marketplace, an agent is installed in the virtual machine that provides a basic set of operating system metrics that are presented to you in the Azure portal. This agent supplies metrics to a service called Azure Monitor, which is a comprehensive platform monitoring solution that collects and displays a standard set of metrics from Azure resources. In the case of a virtual machine, the default metrics captured are CPU, network utilization, and disk read and write operations. You can capture additional metrics beyond what is captured in Azure monitor by enabling Monitoring Insights for your virtual machine as shown in the following image.

-Azure Monitoring Insights allows you to collect additional data points like storage latency, available memory, and disk capacity. These Azure Monitor Insights can be one way of viewing a baseline of performance for your Azure Virtual Machine including I/O performance, memory, and CPU utilization. This data is stored in an Azure Log Analytics workspace. Azure Log Analytics is the primary tool in Azure for storing and querying log files of all kinds. Log Analytics is queried by a SQL-like language called Kusto Query Language (KQL).

 ## Performance Monitor with SQL Server on an Azure Virtual Machine
 
-Whether you are using an on-premises server or on an Azure Virtual Machine, the Windows Server platform has a native tool called Performance Monitor (commonly shortened to *perfmon* after the name of its executable file) that allows you to easily and routinely monitor performance metrics. *Perfmon* operates with counters for both the operating systems and installed programs. When SQL Server is installed on the operating system, the database engine creates its own group of specific counters.

This screen is reached from launching Performance Monitor in Windows and shows a live tracker of a specific performance counter. In many cases, you will capture multiple counters in the same session. *Perfmon* data can be stored locally and analyzed, but in larger environments you can forward performance monitor results into Azure Monitor, where you can have a single view across many servers.
