Answer

Azure Monitor
Azure Monitor is designed to collect, analyze, and act on telemetry data from both cloud and on-premises environments. It helps you understand how your applications are performing and proactively identifies issues affecting them and the resources they depend on, such as CPU and memory utilization.

Step-by-Step Solution

1
Analyze the business requirement which focuses on collecting, analyzing, and acting on telemetry data (such as CPU and memory utilization) of specific Azure resources.
Identify that the task requires resource-level performance monitoring and alerting.
This narrows down the choice to services that track resource metrics and logs.
2
Compare the available Azure services to find which one tracks resource-level telemetry.
Azure Monitor is the native tool for resource telemetry, while Azure Service Health tracks global/regional service outages, Azure Policy handles compliance, and RBAC handles authorization.
Azure Monitor is the only service that fulfills the requirement of tracking specific resource CPU and memory metrics.
