Prometheus and Grafana have become a de facto standard for metrics in the Cloud Native world, and Azure Monitor is a valid, fully-managed alternative to a self-hosted Prometheus environment.

Unfortunately, when replacing Prometheus with Azure Monitor, most Grafana dashboard template won't work anymore out of the box, as they query the data source in PromQL, the Prometheus Query Language. It would be great if Azure Monitor would also be able to be queried with PromQL and the Grafana Data Source Plugin would support that.

This would make the replacement of a self-hosted Prometheus with Azure Monitor much smoother!
