Savings on Azure ..... (more than you hoped for) Let me complete the white paper from Microsoft. I'd like to add the option of using NC2 from #Nutanix on bare metal servers in the Microsoft data centers. Talk to our Belux specialists to learn how to avoid microwaste (those nasty Azure T-shirt sizes !), save costs through hybernation and protect yourself from lock-in via BYOL : off or on premise ! https://lnkd.in/eiSCZ5Wi

Tip if you are working with App Protection Policies within Microsoft #Intune When you create an App Protection Policy (APP), you have the option to target to: ✴ All Apps ✴ All Microsoft Apps ✴ Core Microsoft Apps There even is a nice message stating: "𝘞𝘦'𝘭𝘭 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘶𝘦 𝘵𝘰 𝘢𝘥𝘥 𝘮𝘢𝘯𝘢𝘨𝘦𝘥 𝘢𝘱𝘱𝘴 𝘵𝘰 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘱𝘰𝘭𝘪𝘤𝘺 𝘢𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘺 𝘣𝘦𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘦 𝘢𝘷𝘢𝘪𝘭𝘢𝘣𝘭𝘦 𝘪𝘯 𝘐𝘯𝘵𝘶𝘯𝘦." But! If you select "All Apps" for example and save your App Protection Policies, that includes a 𝐩𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐭-𝐢𝐧-𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞 of all apps available at that time, if new apps are added, they will 𝐧𝐨𝐭 be automatically added to the apps for which the APP is applicable. In my case, I created my policy on May 3th containing All Apps, resulting in 131 apps included. If I create a new APP policy today, it will include 160 apps. Including some apps which you really want to have under APP policy, like Loop and CoPilot. Also note that Microsoft wants us to transition from Require Approved Client App toward Require App Protection Policy in our Conditional Access policies before March 2026 (MC540749). This requires App builders to use a newer version of the Intune SDK though, and while (most) Microsoft are probably updated, you shouldn't automatically expect that from 3rd party apps. Reach out to your App vendor and ask them for that support.

Azure stopt met een aantal Azure networking services per 31-08-2024. Dat betekent concreet: "Before that date, you’ll need to migrate any resources that use these classic networking services to the Azure Resource Manager deployment model" Check: https://lnkd.in/dPN73XVY

Happy #CaseStudyWednesday! 🚨 Join us, comdivision, as we delve into our innovative work with a unit of the Dutch government that manages a vast #VMwareInfrastructure. 🤔 The Challenge? The organization required advanced monitoring, not only for its #vSphere environment, but for all integrated services. Despite planning to utilize #AriaOperations and #AriaOperations for Logs, they faced a significant gap in project management expertise and sought to allocate costs effectively across departments. 🚀 The Solution? Leveraging our expertise as an Aria specialist, we conducted a thorough cost analysis and onboarded infrastructure experts, who were intensively trained in Aria Operations. We crafted and implemented a robust #Architecture, deploying specialized management packages for #NetAppStorage, #UCSServers, and #OracleDatabases – ensuring comprehensive service stack visibility and control. ✅ The Result? Within six months, through numerous strategic collaborations, we extended monitoring capabilities across multiple departments and established transparent and accurate cost structures. The flexibility of our architectural design allowed Aria Operations to seamlessly scale with the institution's growing data needs. A standout moment was when a team member, from their department, independently developed a dashboard to monitor vSphere clusters, marking a significant milestone in our journey towards operational excellence. 🕵️‍♂️ Curious for more?
