Azure Cosmos DB Monitoring Integration
Azure Cosmos DB is a thoroughly managed NoSQL database that takes care of database administration, including automatic management, updates, and patching. It also manages capacity using cost-effective serverless and autonomous scaling options.
With Site24x7's integration, you can now monitor your Cosmos DB, configure thresholds, and receive alerts about critical issues.
