In this lesson, we'll dive into the tools Azure offers to manage hybrid and multi-cloud environments, focusing on Azure Resource Manager (ARM) and Azure Arc. These tools help extend Azure's compliance and monitoring capabilities beyond the Azure cloud to on-premises and other cloud environments.
Azure Resource Manager (ARM) and Azure Arc
Azure Resource Manager (ARM) is a robust framework that allows you to manage your Azure resources. Azure Arc extends this capability, providing a centralized management platform for your entire infrastructure, including hybrid and multi-cloud configurations.
Key Capabilities of Azure Arc
Centralized and Unified Management with Azure Arc
Azure Arc simplifies governance and management by unifying your management experience across different environments. By projecting non-Azure resources into ARM, you gain a consistent management platform, streamlining operations and reducing complexity.
Managing Diverse Environments
Azure Arc enables you to manage a variety of resource types hosted outside of Azure:
Practical Applications of Azure Arc
Unified Resource Management
By projecting non-Azure resources into ARM, Azure Arc allows you to manage your entire environment seamlessly. Whether your resources are on-premises, on other clouds, or on Azure, you can use the same tools and processes to manage them.
Multi-Cloud and Hybrid VM Management
Azure Arc treats virtual machines running on different platforms as first-class citizens in the Azure ecosystem. This unified approach simplifies operations and reduces the learning curve for managing a diverse set of resources.
Kubernetes Cluster Management
Azure Arc extends Azure's powerful Kubernetes management capabilities to clusters running anywhere. This means you can use Azure's tools to manage Kubernetes deployments on-premises or on other cloud platforms just as you would with Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS).
Consistent Data Governance
With Azure Arc, you can apply consistent data governance policies across all your data services, regardless of their location. This ensures compliance and simplifies data management across hybrid and multi-cloud environments.
