Azure Arc Site Manager

Microsoft has announced a new feature within the Azure Arc portfolio — Azure Arc Site Manager!

This public preview feature is designed to help customers view and monitor their resources according to their physical locations. Site manager allows customers to create Arc sites to represent their on-premises environments and have a centralised view for monitoring the infrastructure on the edge.

Currently, Azure Arc Site manager supports Azure Stack HCI, Azure Arc-enabled servers, Azure Arc-enabled Kubernetes and Azure IoT Operations Assets. Coming soon is support for more resource types, including Arc-enabled SQL servers, Arc-enabled VMware vSphere, and some cloud resources.

Getting started with Azure Arc Site Manager

To get started with Azure Arc Site Manager head over to your Azure Portal, and search for the Azure Arc management blade.

On the left-hand side you will see Site Manager (preview) click on that.
