ℹ️ Understanding the 8R migration strategy is critical for legacy infrastructure, and Azure Arc bridges the gap between old and new. Instead of ripping out functioning on-premises servers, manage them modernly in a Hybrid Cloud setup. Retaining traditional workloads is viable with Azure Arc, bringing cloud-native security to your Windows Server fleet. Implement an Adaptive Cloud strategy without abandoning past investments.

☢️ Modernizing your hybrid connectivity doesn't have to be complex, and public endpoints are a robust, high-performance option when paired with a Next-Gen Firewall.

Traditional IP-based firewalls are a thing of the past; embrace direct connectivity to ensure your hybrid management remains lean and agile.

I know this requires some polishing and update, but it is still the best starting point: https://hartiga.de/azure/best-connection-to-azure-arc-enable-a-server/

☢️ Dealing with disconnected Azure Arc agents is incredibly frustrating.

Start here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-arc/servers/manage-agent?tabs=windows#upgrade-the-agent

‼️ The recommended way to keep the Windows agent version up to date isMicrosoft Update. Don't feel bad using the "legacy" way!

If i have one story to tell... it is my story around the Azure Arc vision and toolset for your single control plane.

This drawing and the original article by Thomas Maurer around "Azure Arc for Cloud Solutions Architects" started my journey. It also started my journey as a Microsoft MVP.
