Hello,

Wondering if we can use any of the MS Services to do an analysis of the DNS Queries (A record, AAAA record, CNAME record) on the Azure Platform.

I am looking for a solution with more insights on the DNS Queries, can this be achieved using any Azure Services or any kind of scripting?

    Thank you for reaching out.

    Yes, you can use Azure Monitor to analyze DNS queries on the Azure platform. Azure Monitor provides a DNS Analytics solution that allows you to monitor DNS query rate trends, DNS zone-query-per-second statistics, DNS configuration change events, and DNS analytical logs. You can also use the Log Search feature to create advanced queries to filter and report on your results.

    Alternatively, if you are using Azure DNS to host your domains you can take a look at this document which provides metrics for you to monitor specific aspects of your DNS zones.

    Kindly let us know if the above helps or you need further assistance on this issue.
