Problem Statement

The Azure Monitor Data Collector API allows you to import any custom log data into a Log Analytics workspace in Azure Monitor. In this article, we will send data/metrics from Azure Synapse Analytics to Azure log analytics workspace and build an alert and dashboard on top of it.

The only requirements are that the data should be JSON-formatted and split into 30 MB or less segments. This is a completely flexible mechanism that can be plugged into many ways: here we will use data/logs sent from Azure Synapse Data warehouse.

The pipeline presented here will not be the most performant or otherwise optimized, it is intended to serve as a starting point towards building a production pipeline of your own.
