What package and client is recommended for querying batch and single metrics?

[PCaponetti]

I see there is /monitor/azquery, and /monitor/query/azmetrics. There are differences between them but they seem to have the same intent: get metrics. It seems only the azquery package has a function referencing single metric API but both have functions to query metrics by the batch (here and here).

Is the overlap intentional? Are there different intents for the different packages? Is one supported and the other deprecated?

Guessing @gracewilcox knows the answer, so pinging directly :)

Hi @PCaponetti! Thank you for your question!

The azquery module queries logs and metrics using multiple service endpoints.

This is not a long-term, sustainable design, so we decided to break up the logs and metrics into different modules. To query metrics using the data plane endpoint, use monitor/query/azmetrics . To query logs, use monitor/query/azlogs .

When the service team adds new features, they'll be added to those modules.

We are planning to deprecate the azquery module.

The transition is being tracked in this issue: #22377
