Free units for alert rules on Azure

Question

Could you please let me know if you have any information about alert rules. The document of azure monitor pricing says "10 monitored metric time-series per month13" about Native Metrics, but it does not mention scope, such as if it is per subscription or not.

Does it means per subscription or per each service?

Hi @Yuta WAKITA

Welcome to the Microsoft Q&A Platform! Thank you for asking your question here.

The scope is per resource, and the metric time series is monitored per resource, not at the subscription level.

Pricing Calculation Example:

Below is a sample pricing calculation. You can customize it based on your specific requirements:

Resources: 10 Virtual Machines (VMs)

3 Metrics Monitored per VM:

CPU Utilization

Memory Usage

Disk Writes

 Please note that the final cost will depend on the specific features you choose, such as ITSM (IT Service Management) and Webhooks.

Below is the pricing calculator link.

Navigate to Alert Rules, select the required resources and metrics, and customize other features as needed.

1,000 emails, 1,000 push notifications and 100,000 web hooks are included for free per month. Additional emails charged as per the below utilization.
