AZ-305 · Question 09 · Domain 1.1: Logging and Monitoring
You are designing the monitoring architecture for a globally distributed microservices application hosted on Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) across three regions.
The development team needs to trace requests end-to-end as they flow through the microservices, identify performance bottlenecks, and view application dependency maps. The solution must minimize custom coding.
Which Azure service should you recommend?

Identify the keywords: 'trace requests end-to-end', 'dependency maps', 'minimize custom coding'. This points directly to an APM tool.
Full Answer
B.Application Insights✓ Correct
Application Insights
Application Insights is Azure's Application Performance Management (APM) service. It automatically discovers application dependencies, generates application maps, and provides distributed tracing to track requests end-to-end across microservices, fulfilling all requirements with minimal to no custom coding (via auto-instrumentation).
Common mistakes
Confusing infrastructure monitoring (Log Analytics/Container Insights) with application performance monitoring (Application Insights).
