Metric alerts with dynamic thresholds
Response times for an application at Corbin Freight follow a weekly pattern, making static alert thresholds noisy. You want a metric alert that learns historical behavior and flags deviations automatically. What should you configure?
- A.A log search alert with a fixed threshold
- B.An activity log alert for administrative operations
- C.A metric alert rule that uses dynamic thresholds
- D.A Service Health alert
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: C. A metric alert rule that uses dynamic thresholds
Why: Dynamic thresholds use machine learning on a metric's history, including seasonal patterns, to calculate expected ranges and alert on deviations. A fixed threshold is exactly what causes the noise. Activity log alerts track control-plane events, and Service Health alerts cover Azure platform incidents.
