Yes, in Azure VMs, you can retrieve per-core CPU usage details using Azure Monitor or Performance Counters. Per-core CPU usage refers to the utilization of each processor core within the VM. This differs from overall CPU usage, which provides the combined utilization of all cores in the VM.
Monitoring per-core CPU usage helps assess the workload distribution across cores, enabling more precise performance analysis and optimization. Azure Monitor provides insights into individual core performance, allowing for a deeper understanding of resource utilization and potential bottlenecks. Utilizing Performance Counters, you can extract specific per-core CPU metrics for detailed analysis and troubleshooting.
