Capacity Metrics - CU Utilization Alerting

This was provided to me by our Azure guy, will follow up if this ends up working out!
Pat Mahoney's video is all very well but keep in mind that the Kusto store behind the Capacity Metrics App has a large delay of at least 8 minutes. Think of your capacities as mini suns. You won't know if they exploded until eight minutes after the fact. Real time it is not, and you will always be in reactive mode.
(if you want a fun exercise - connect to the semantic model of the metrics app, look at their data model and feast your eyes...)
Yep. Seems like the best I can do is see it getting close - and size up before it gets to the point of being throttled. Autoscaling would be so nice.
That's what we do
Keep an eye on the background trend. If you don't like what you see, identify the culprits and talk to them in a nice, non-threatening way.
