Reduce number of ARM calls to get metric definitions allowing end-users to hit rate limiting less often.
Currently, every time we want to fetch the metrics for a given Azure resource we always:
- Get the list of available metric definitions
- Determine appropriate aggregation (based on config)
- Query metric for resource based on definition
- Interpret the metric value
Both step 1 & 3 are performing API calls while 1 will most likely provide the same result that was provided last execution. Because of that, we are caching the metric definitions for 1h.
