Archana Balakrishnan joins Scott Hanselman to show how Azure Lighthouse can manage hundreds of customers, thousands of subscriptions, and millions of resources from a unified control plane.
Azure Lighthouse helps deliver managed services with comprehensive and robust management tooling available in Azure.
Benefits include:
- SINGLE SIGN ON – With a single ID, manage all your customers/departments & their subscriptions – instead of logging into each Azure environment with a different identity.
- ONE CONSOLE – View all your managed customers from a single pane of glass
- FLEXIBLE ROLES – Empower departments to select what rights/permissions to grant your organization (an individual or a group)_ as a manager of part/all of their Azure environment.
- ON-PREM MANAGEMENT – Manage on-premises servers (through an agent installed on them)
- ENFORCE POLICIES – Establish and assign policies to ensure adherence to rules & identify systems that are not compliant
- MONITOR COMPLIANCE – Aggregate & view policy compliance, health issues & severity across all subscriptions
- DEPLOY WORKBOOKS – Apply administrative workbooks – like Backup – to identify who’s being backed up, which subscriptions have backups have failed, etc.
