Extended event vs audit vs profiler trace is really a crapshoot if you dont’ see the questions before hand. These tools all do the same thing. They find events and log them into a file or table. Extended the events has the most events predefined. Profiler trace is deprecated and audit has baked events that is a combination of simpler events in extended events. Otherwise they’re the same and you shouldn’t need three different things to do the same thing.

Oh, and sql trace does replay on a different server while extended events doesn’t yet…
