Dashboards in Azure Portal

Hi
 
Today I will be reviewing the Azure Portal Dashboard.
We have seen lots of improvements in that field.
It has developed to include a variety of options, and lot of use cases:
 
  1. Monitoring, with full screen and charts.
  2. Shortcuts to the most usable apps.
  3. Share dashboards between users.
  4. You can have multi Dashboards, like Dashboard for DB's, for Storage or VM's or per application or resource group.
I find these new features very useful and very easy to implement.
Here are some screenshots showing the uses.
 
Image 1 - shows what options we have for the Dashboards
 
 
:
We can add new, edit an exiting one, share to other users, clone and delete.
 
 
Image 2 - shows the options when clicking on the arrow near the Dashboard, we see the list of my dashboards, and the dashboards that was shared with me.
 
 
 
Image 3 - shows the screen after clicking on "Share", we can share to a subscription, and put it in a location as resource group.
 
 
 
 
Image 4 - shows a custom Dashboard I created for a 10 sharded DB system - to have the DTU and Storage in the same place - also adding the management DB.
 
  
 
So enjoy your journey with in the new Dashboards world.
 
Thanks
Pini

The journey to the Lakehouse

A long time has passed since the last post, we have gone through a long and tedious journey to adapt what Azure offers us, to our needs. Our needs were simple, the Current Datawarehouse (SQL Server on VM inazure) served the BI. ML teams worked on GCP, we want to let both teams to work on Azure in a platform that will have the ability to scale and will not fail every 2 days. We checked: Snowflake on azure Synapse analytics GCP We decided to go for the full Azure product for the reasons: Migration time support costs Synapse as a platform contains many components, and the challenge was to find what fits  us as an organization and as a group. The knowledge of the people and their abilities influenced the plans. Here's what we planned and what we did: We start to put everything in the Data Lake in parquet or delta format, build on top of Azure ADLS gen 2. We had to move some data to T-SQL compatible platform, so this involves setting up a dedicated Synapse pool , which is a fully man...

Developers are using Microservices - so we have many applications many services and many many Databases. Many kinds of DB's like Cloud IAAS and PAAS. Secure and audit the data is must. The Clusters must have Uptime as long as we can achive. Data Modeling - is so important too. Challenges and Problems in the data bases systems Lots of DB’s Lots of creators / no standards Lots of Consumers (Query, tools, SLA) Raw data Lots of data resources Data silos In Data Engineering we have other challenges for example we have Data lake and Data Warehouses : Batch process. Stream Process. many data ...
