Empower Hybrid Cloud Management with Azure Arc
Modernize your enterprise IT infrastructure and bring the flexibility of the cloud to your data centers and edge environments with Azure Arc. At PEAKUP, we integrate Azure Arc into your operations in the most reliable, cost-efficient, and sustainable way.
Modern Management Platform
Azure Arc is Microsoft’s management platform built for hybrid and multi-cloud environments. It enables you to centrally manage your on-premises servers, multi-cloud resources, and edge devices directly through the Azure portal. In short, it extends the power of cloud management across your entire infrastructure.
Centralized Management
Advanced Compatibility
Security & Governance
Achieve centralized security, governance, and compliance with Azure Policy and Microsoft Defender for Cloud.
Modern Development
Unified Hybrid Management
Azure Arc brings order to distributed infrastructures by centralizing management, increasing control, and improving operational efficiency. Below are the key capabilities of Azure Arc:
- Server Management: Monitor and manage Windows and Linux servers via the Azure portal.
- Kubernetes Integration: Make Kubernetes clusters in any environment Azure-compatible.
- Data Services: Run services like Azure SQL and PostgreSQL on-premises.
- Security & Compliance: Build a standardized security framework using Azure RBAC, Policy, and Defender.
- Application Modernization: Extend cloud-native applications into hybrid environments.
Key Features

Azure Monitor & Log Analytics
Centralized monitoring and analytics across all systems.
Defender for Cloud Integration
End-to-end hybrid security visibility.
Role-Based Access Control (RBAC)
Consistent and centralized access governance.
Create Value-Driven Solutions for Your Business Processes
Azure Arc connects Windows and Linux servers running on-premises as well as on AWS or GCP to Azure. Through the Azure portal, you can assign tags, manage inventory, and monitor server health across all environments.
Arc-enabled servers send data to Azure Monitor and Log Analytics, providing visibility into CPU, RAM, disk usage, application logs, and security alerts. You can build alerts, dashboards, and action rules on top of these insights.
On-premises servers become fully protected with Microsoft Defender through Azure Arc. Threat detection, vulnerability assessments, and recommended actions are all delivered centrally.
Azure Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) provides granular access management. Centralized governance prevents permission sprawl and ensures consistent security.
Create custom automation scenarios using PowerShell or Azure Runbooks. Example: “Run log clean-up on specific servers every Monday at 03:00.”
Azure Arc supports Kubernetes clusters and enables continuous deployment with native GitOps integration.
Azure Arc enables running Azure SQL Managed Instance and PostgreSQL on-premises. Management operations such as scaling, security, and backup can be performed directly from Azure.
Azure Arc integrates with platforms like ServiceNow for automated ticketing and incident management workflows.
Modern Management for On-Premises Systems: Your First Step to Azure
Many organizations still run critical workloads like Windows Server and SQL Server within their on-premises data centers. Migrating everything to the cloud may not always be operationally or technically feasible. This is where Azure Arc becomes invaluable.
Azure Arc allows you to keep existing systems in place while extending cloud-grade management capabilities to your local environments. Manage, secure, and integrate resources with Azure—regardless of physical location.
Azure Arc is the ideal starting point for organizations not yet ready for full cloud migration.
- Protect Your Investment: Modernize operations without replacing existing on-prem systems.
- Bring Cloud Capabilities to Local Environments: Use Azure Policy, RBAC, Defender for Cloud, Update Management, and more.
- Extend SQL and Windows Server from Your Data Center: Integrate Azure SQL Managed Instance and Windows Server via Azure Arc.
- Easy Connectivity: No VPN or dedicated network required—agent-based connectivity provides full visibility in Azure.
- Gradual Cloud Adoption: Your teams build cloud expertise with minimal risk and full control.
- Security & Compliance: Apply Azure’s security and compliance framework even on local systems.
- Centralized Monitoring & Automation: Improve operational efficiency using Azure Monitor and Automation across your on-prem environments.
