1. KQL Basics
Kusto Query Language (KQL) is a pipe-forward query language for exploring data. It is the native query language for Azure Data Explorer (ADX), Microsoft Fabric Real-Time Intelligence (EventHouse), Azure Monitor Log Analytics, Microsoft Sentinel, and other Microsoft data services.
Pipe-forward syntax
KQL queries are a chain of operators separated by |. Data flows left to right:
StormEvents // start with a table
| where State == "TEXAS" // filter rows
| summarize count() by EventType // aggregate
| top 5 by count_ desc // limit results
