Which of the following is NOT one of the five key use cases for Infrastructure Monitoring?

• A. Cloud Monitoring
• B. Application Analytics
• C. Infrastructure Troubleshooting and Triage
• D. Virtualization Troubleshooting

Answer: (B)

The main idea here is understanding what infrastructure monitoring is designed to observe and improve. Infrastructure monitoring focuses on the health and performance of the underlying tech stack—cloud resources, servers, virtualization, networks, storage—and the metrics that reveal issues in that layer (like CPU, memory, I/O, latency, and capacity).

Because of that scope, monitoring activities include tracking cloud resources, troubleshooting and triaging infrastructure problems, and addressing issues in the virtualization layer. Application Analytics, on the other hand, is about understanding how an application behaves, its code-level performance, and user-facing experience—areas typically handled by application performance monitoring rather than infrastructure monitoring.

So Application Analytics isn’t considered one of the five key infrastructure-monitoring use cases, while the other options fit squarely within that infrastructure-focused scope.
