Better Blob Exports (both JSON & CSV) formats
Blobs are placed in logical YYYY/MM/ path structure with Day.ext format file names, easy to locate and run further ETLs.
Azure Storage Table for Long Term Retention
Records will also be stored in a storage table for curating Daily Reports that covers last 7 days. In order to not hit limits of Azure Billing API, I only extract 1 or 2 days worth of data at a time and use table for retro lookups.
Your Data Your Rules, Logs are also Pushed to a Log Analytics Workspace
This is the data backend for the Azure Portal Dashboard Charts. However, once your logs are here possibilities are endless.
You can create Azure Workbooks, Azure Monitor Alerts or just run your custom queries to deep dive into your Azure usage data.
