Working with queries in the Analytics portal
In this recipe, we will review query writing in more detail, and show how to write basic queries.
Azure Log Analytics queries can start with either a table name or a search command. In either case, a table will always be the reference point because Log Analytics data sources store their data in dedicated tables in a workspace (or in several workspaces). The start of a query must, therefore, define a clear scope for the query.
While search commands are effective, a table-based query is preferable for efficiency, returning the relevant data and providing optimal query performance.
We will review both query types in this recipe.
