• Workspace-based Application Insights is an enhanced approach that integrates Application Insights with Log Analytics using a unified workspace.
• Let's delve into the details:

1. Unified Workspace Integration:

- With workspace-based resources, Application Insights sends telemetry to a common Log Analytics workspace.

- This integration allows you to access all the features of Log Analytics while keeping your application, infrastructure, and platform logs in a single consolidated location.

- No more juggling between different regions

-everything is neatly organized within one workspace.

2. Key Capabilities:

- Customer-Managed Keys: Encrypt your data at rest using encryption keys that only you have access to.

- Azure Private Link: Securely link Azure platform services to your virtual network via private endpoints.

- Bring Your Own Storage (BYOS) for Profiler and Snapshot Debugger: Control the data associated with these features.

- Encryption-at-Rest Policy: Safeguard your data even when it's not actively in use.

- Lifetime Management Policy: Manage data retention efficiently.

- Network Access Commitment Tiers: Save up to 30% compared to pay-as-you-go pricing.

- Log Analytics Streaming: Faster data ingestion for real-time insights.

3. Migration and Creation:

- To create a workspace-based resource:

- Sign in to the Azure portal and create an Application Insights resource.

- If you don't have an existing Log Analytics workspace, create one.

- Workspace-based resources are available in all commercial regions and Azure Government.

- Having Application Insights and Log Analytics in the same region improves latency and overall reliability.

- Backward compatibility is maintained for classic resource queries, workbooks, and log-based alerts.

- To explore the new workspace-based table structure, visit your Log Analytics workspace under azure!

In summary, workspace-based Application Insights enhances monitoring by providing seamless integration, advanced capabilities, and a unified query environment.
