Everything on the app service plan is shared, everything on the app service itself is not. Connections are measured on the app service and thus measured per slot.
After a swap the monitor is pointing to the actual slot that handles the production load.

<p>My question is actually quite simple: if I have a webapp with a deployment slot and a monitor that checks the health of webapp in some way (connections, cpu time or the like) , if I do a swap, what is the monitor watching? The new webapp or the old?</p>

<p>I would like to think it is always watching the current production slot, but I can't find it in the docs. </p>
