Answer

Azure Service Health alerts
Azure Service Health alerts allow users to create customized alerts that notify them when Azure service issues, planned maintenance, or other advisories affect their specific subscriptions and resources.

Step-by-Step Solution

1
Analyze the requirement to receive notifications for Azure infrastructure outages and maintenance that affect specific subscriptions.
The requirement is specifically about platform-level health events that affect tenant resources.
Distinguishing between resource-level telemetry and platform-level infrastructure health is critical for choosing the right tool.
2
Compare Azure Monitor and Azure Service Health capabilities.
Azure Service Health is the dedicated service for tracking platform-level issues and maintenance, whereas Azure Monitor tracks user-deployed resource performance.
Selecting the service designed for tenant-specific platform notifications ensures alerts are correctly filtered.

Key Concept

Azure Service Health alerts provide personalized notifications about Azure service issues, planned maintenance, and other health advisories that impact your specific resources.
