Azure App Service Slots Monitoring Integration

Azure App Service slots enable you to run your apps using diverse environments exposed through openly available endpoints.

With Site24x7's integration, you can now monitor your App Service slots, configure thresholds, and receive alerts about critical issues.

Setup and configuration

You can add an Azure App Service slot while adding a new monitor, or you can add it to an existing Azure monitor. Follow these steps to add the service.

Supported metrics

The following metrics are collected:

Metric nameDescriptionStatisticUnit

IO Read Bytes per Second The rate at which the app process is reading bytes from the IO operations Total Bytes per Second
IO Read Operations per Second The rate at which the app process is issuing read IO operations Total Bytes per Second
IO Write Bytes per Second The rate at which the app process is writing bytes to IO operations Total Bytes per Second
IO Write Operations per Second The rate at which the app process is issuing write IO operations Total Bytes per Second
Memory Working Set The current amount of memory used by the app Average Bytes
Private Bytes The current amount of memory that the app process has allocated that can't be shared with other processes Average Bytes
Requests The total number of requests regardless of their resulting HTTP status code Total Count
Requests In Application Queue The number of requests in the application request queue Average Count
Thread Count The number of threads currently active in the app process Average Count
Total App Domains The current number of App Domains loaded in this application Average Count

Threshold configuration

Global configuration

  1. Go to the Admin section in the left navigation pane.
  2. Select Configuration Profiles from the left pane and choose the Threshold and Availability (+) tab from the drop-down menu. Click Add Threshold Profile from the top-right corner.
  3. Select Azure App Service Slots as the monitor type. You can now set the threshold values for all the metrics mentioned above.

Monitor-level configuration

  1. Go to Cloud > Azure and select Azure App Service Slots from the drop-down menu.
  2. Choose a resource for which you would like to set a threshold, then click the hamburger icon Hamburger Icon. Select Edit, which will direct you to the Edit Azure App Service Slots Monitor page.
  3. You can set the threshold values for the metrics by selecting Threshold and Availability. You can also configure IT Automation at the attribute level.

IT Automation

Site24x7 offers a set of exclusive IT Automation tools to auto-resolve performance degradation issues. These tools react to events proactively rather than waiting for manual intervention.
