New steps
Today, companies are struggling to control and govern an environment that becomes more and
more complex. These environments extend across data centers, multiple clouds, and edge. Each
environment and cloud have its own set of disjointed management tools that you need to learn
and operate.
In parallel, new DevOps and ITOps operational models are hard to implement, as existing tools fail
to provide support for new cloud native patterns.
‘Azure Arc simplifies governance and management by delivering a consistent multi-cloud and on-
premises management platform. Azure Arc enables you to manage your entire environment, with a
single pane of glass, by projecting your existing resources into Azure Resource Manager. You can
now manage virtual machines, Kubernetes clusters, and databases as if they are running in Azure.
Regardless of where they live, you can use familiar Azure services and management capabilities.
Azure Arc enables you to continue using traditional ITOps, while introducing DevOps practices to
support new cloud native patterns in your environment.

+ Manage and govern Kubernetes clusters at scale.
* Use GitOps-based configuration as code management to deploy applications and
configuration across one or more clusters directly from source control, such as GitHub
* Zero touch compliance and configuration for your Kubernetes clusters using Azure Policy.
* Run Azure data services on any Kubernetes environment, specifically Azure SQL Managed
Instance and Azure Database for PostgreSQL Hyperscale, with benefits such as
upgrades/updates, security, and monitoring as if it runs in Azure. Leverage elastic scale, apply
updates, without any application downtime, even if it doesn't have a continuous connection
to Azure.
* Aunified experience viewing your Azure Arc enabled resources whether you are using the
Azure portal, the Azure CLI, Azure PowerShell, or Azure REST API
