Azure - Alert Rule Duplication saves some time

#cloud #azure

Hi All!

Apart from resource(s) provisioning, it is responsibility of admins to enable some monitor mechanishm for resorce(s) health too as per customer need. When some unexpected or predicted conditions met, it should alert the customer to take some precautions and avoid the whole resource/application becomes inacccessible.

This article is not going to describe about creating alert(s) instead we are going to see the Duplicating Alert in azure portal.

Some of you would have a question that why should I duplicate it? I can create it instead right?

Your thought is correct.

Below are the main components we need to consider while creating alerts

  • Scope - single resource level or resource group level or subscription level
  • Condition - Signals - Http errors or health check or Http 4xx etc.,
  • Actios - Notification to Action Group - email or SMS or voice etc and Actions - trigger function app or logic app or automation accont etc

Consider a scenario that you want to create an alert rule as similar as an existing with a simple change that action group change. So Here Instead of creating an alert rule from the beginning, you can duplicate it and change that place only where changes required. Now new alert rule is ready.

Note: Duplicate alert option would not be available/enabled for all the alert rule(s).

Before that, we need to know what is policy (aka) Branch policy in ADO Branch policy has set of policies to be applied on the branch typically main. By that we avoid accidental activity. Few are as Reviewers required to view the code change before move to main/master branch work item - ADO's user story / task / bug etc., any of the item number should be linked Consider a scenario that your organization's existing project has some policies like most recent code pusher can not push code again. Very rare case may happen or not, a senior developer needs a exclusion to fix an urgent pre-prod/production incident. So He/She does not want to be in that case.

So I need to visit logic app, function app and application insights if enabled. If we use single tab, it will take more time. So, we can have multiple tabs. Here logic app, azure function and application insights in each tab I would have. yes. It will save our time but consider that sometimes we would have more than 10 tabs at that time we may not know which tab has which resource because all browsers have A icon.

Azure storage account new access tier - Glimpse Azure has introduced a new access tier for storage account called 𝐂𝐨𝐥𝐝. What is the use of it where we already have 3 access tiers as 𝐇𝐨𝐭, 𝐂𝐨𝐨𝐥 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐀𝐫𝐜𝐡𝐢𝐯𝐞? Let us take scenarios as below. When our document will get frequently accessed - 𝐇𝐨𝐭 When my document will be infrequently accessed (i.e Within 30 days, it can be accessed. - 𝐂𝐨𝐨𝐥 If my document will be accessed after 30 days, 𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐥𝐢𝐞𝐫 𝐰𝐞 𝐠𝐨 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐀𝐫𝐜𝐡𝐢𝐯𝐞 access tier but now When my document needs to be accessed within 90 days at any time - 𝐂𝐨𝐥𝐝 Data retrieval from Archive needs some process like rehydrating (i.e converting from Archive tier to (Hot or Cool) aka offline tier to online tier). To save some cost, we can go for cold tier which allows us to keep our data for 90 days instead of archive tier. Limitations and known issues. The change feed is not yet compatible with the cold tier. Object rep
