In the ever-evolving landscape of cloud computing, Log Analytics Workspace is used as a tool in Azure to collect logs, edit/run log queries and interactively analyze query results.
As organizations scale their infrastructure and applications, the volume of observability data naturally increases.
A query running in Log Analytics workspace can return a maximum of 30,000 records. However, there are several instances where huge amount of data needs to be extracted and analyzed. Some of the scenarios are:
This limitation of the 30,000 records in the workspace leads to writing the same query in a shorter time range, running it multiple times to get the data in batches and combining that data at the end. Hence causing re-running/re-writing query with additional efforts and taking more time than expected to fetch logs.
To address this challenge and to empower customers with the ability to query and fetch data in one go, Azure Data explorer service in Azure can be utilized.
Azure Data Explorer is a platform for high-performance which helps to analyze high volumes of data in near real time. The Azure Data Explorer provides an end-to-end solution for data ingestion, query, visualization, and management. Azure Data Explorer is ideal for enabling interactive analytics capabilities over high velocity, diverse raw data.
