AMA is designed to replace all of Azure Monitor's legacy monitoring agents. It offers several benefits, including cost savings through targeted data collection rules, simpler management, and enhanced security with Managed Identity and Microsoft Entra tokens¹.
It's important to note that the Log Analytics agent is on a deprecation path and won't be supported after August 31, 2024. Therefore, if you're using the Log Analytics agent, you should migrate to the new Azure Monitor agent before that date¹.
