How does eG Enterprise Monitor Microsoft Azure Data Factory?

eG Enterprise provides a specialized Microsoft Azure Data Factory model to monitor the health of data pipeline activities in Microsoft Azure environment. To collect metrics from the target Microsoft Azure Data Factory, eG Enterprise employs an agent-based monitoring approach - i.e., it uses an eG external agent deployed on any host/VM in the environment. This eG external agent communicates with the Microsoft Azure cloud and pulls metrics related to the health of data pipeline activities by making Azure ARM REST API calls. With the help of these metrics, administrators can track the movement of data, optimize resources, and ensure data security/compliance in the Azure environment.

To enable the eG agent to pull metrics on the health of data pipeline activities, you need to make sure that the requirements detailed in thePre-requisites for Monitoring Microsoft Azure Data Factorytopic are fulfilled.
