Which TWO statements correctly distinguish metric alerts from log search alerts?

  1. A Metric alerts evaluate pre-aggregated data with lower latency and cost (correct answer)
  2. B Log search alerts run a KQL query on a schedule and are more expressive (correct answer)
  3. C Log search alerts are always cheaper
  4. D Metric alerts cannot use dimensions
  5. E Log search alerts evaluate in real time

Shortcut: Platform metrics are pre-aggregated, so metric alerts fire quickly and cheaply and do support dimensions. Log search alerts trade latency and query cost for the full expressiveness of KQL across arbitrary tables.
