01 | Azure Alert Notifications

Alert NotificationsYou can receive an alert based on monitoring metrics for your Azure services. An alert rule enables you to monitor a Azure service based on a metric value. When the value of a specified metric violates the threshold assigned for a rule, the alert rule becomes active and registers an alert.
