Which Azure platform service collects, analyzes, and acts on telemetry — metrics and logs — from cloud and on-premises resources?
A.Azure Advisor
Advisor gives optimization recommendations — a different tool.
B.Azure Monitor
Monitor = the telemetry platform. Correct.
C.Azure Service Health
Service Health reports Azure service outages/advisories, not your resource telemetry.
D.Azure Resource Manager
ARM manages resources, not monitoring.
Why this answer
Azure Monitor is the full observability platform: metrics (numeric time-series) and logs (collected into Log Analytics workspaces via KQL), alerts, dashboards. Application Insights is its application-monitoring component; Service Health reports Azure platform issues.
