Auditing ADF Activities with Diagnostic Logs

In this lesson, we'll explore the crucial aspects of auditing and logging in ADF, providing valuable insights into data integration workflows and ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements.

Auditing and logging Azure resources

Azure services efficiently capture and store logs in a centralized repository hosted in Azure Monitor. The log analytics workspace serves as the transactional data store within Azure Monitor, enabling seamless querying and analysis of logs using Kusto Query Language (KQL) or the log analytics dashboard. Furthermore, logs can be conveniently exported to dashboards and BI tools like Power BI for extended visibility and analysis.

Azure Log Analytics workspace

Azure Log Analytics workspace is a centralized platform in Azure that collects, stores, and analyzes log and telemetry data from various Azure resources and systems, providing a unified view for real-time monitoring, advanced analytics, and troubleshooting. When connected to ADF, it configures diagnostic settings to enable logging for ADF components, streamlining access to logs for comprehensive monitoring and troubleshooting.
