You have an Azure subscription named Subscription1.
You deploy a Linux virtual machine named VM1 to Subscription1.
You need to monitor the metrics and the logs of VM1.
What should you use?
A. the AzurePerformanceDiagnostics extension
B. Azure HDInsight
C. Linux Diagnostic Extension (LAD) 3.0
D. Azure Analysis Services
Explanation:
You can use extensions to configure diagnostics on your VMs to collect additional metric data.
The basic host metrics are available, but to see more granular and VM-specific metrics, you need to install the Azure diagnostics extension on the VM. The Azure diagnostics extension allows additional monitoring and diagnostics data to be retrieved from the VM.

Don’t agree with this answer. The provided reference link in the explanation section mentions nothing about about it.

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-machines/troubleshooting/performance-diagnostics-vm-extension
both links state it’s for for diagnostics and troubleshooting.
I think the answer isn’t there and should be Azure Monitor Data Platform:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-monitor/platform/data-platform
It’s possible the answer could be B if there’s a typo there and it’s meant to be ‘Azure Insight’
How to enable Azure Monitor for VMs: ‘You can enable a single Azure VM by selecting Insights directly from the VM or virtual machine scale set’
