Azure Autoscale Setting Monitoring Integration

Azure autoscale settings help you automatically scale the functionality of the services running in your environment.

With Site24x7's integration, you can now monitor your autoscale settings, configure thresholds, and receive alerts about critical issues.

Setup and configuration

You can add an Azure autoscale setting while adding a new monitor, or you can add it to an existing Azure monitor. Follow these steps to add the service.

Supported metrics

The following metrics are collected:

Metric name	Description	Statistic	Unit
Metric Threshold	The average count of the configured autoscale thresholds when autoscale ran	Average	Count
Observed Capacity	The average capacity reported to autoscale when it was executed	Average	Count
Observed Metric Value	The value computed by autoscale when executed	Average	Count
Scale Actions Initiated	The total number of scale actions initiated during the scale operation	Total	Count
Maximum Capacity	If the AutoScale set profile rule is greater than 0, Site24x7 will consider the the maximum value of the capacity over the other profiles. If the rule is equal to 0, then there will be no data for this metric.	Average	Count
Used Capacity Percent	The percentage of Observed Capacity by Maximum Capacity	Average	Percent
