Azure Arc Brings It Inside.Enterprise organisations run hybrid infrastructure — Azure cloud alongside on-premises servers, VMware environments, and potentially other cloud platforms. Without Azure Arc, the on-premises estate is a governance blind spot: no Azure Policy, no Defender for Cloud, no unified monitoring. Azure Arc projects Azure management capabilities onto any infrastructure — on-premises, AWS, GCP, or air-gapped.Symhas designs and deploys Azure Arc — Arc-enabled servers bringing on-premises and multi-cloud VMs under Azure Policy and Defender for Cloud, Arc-enabled Kubernetes extending GitOps to on-premises clusters, and Arc-enabled data services running Azure SQL Managed Instance on-premises with Azure management.
Production-Grade on Azure.
Every capability designed, deployed, and documented by Symhas Azure-certified architects. Fixed price. SLA-backed from go-live.
Fixed Price. Fixed Timeline.
Four phases with go/no-go gates. Scope and price agreed before week one.
On-premises server and Kubernetes cluster inventory. Network connectivity assessment for Arc agent outbound access. Log Analytics workspace design. Arc-enabled data services requirements. Architecture and connectivity approved.
Connected Machine agents deployed on on-premises Windows and Linux servers. Azure Policy guest configuration assigned. Defender for Servers enabled. Azure Monitor agent deployed. Update Manager configured.
Arc agents deployed on on-premises Kubernetes clusters. GitOps Flux configured. Arc-enabled SQL MI deployed on Arc Kubernetes where required. Defender for Containers enabled. Hybrid monitoring dashboards built.
All on-premises infrastructure visible in Azure portal. Unified monitoring dashboard live. Operations team certified on Arc management and GitOps workflow. Symhas moves to advisory.
On-Premises Servers in Azure Portal. Defender Extended. Unified Monitoring.
The asset management firm had 47 on-premises servers running critical workloads that could not move to cloud within the programme timeline — compliance databases, legacy trading systems, and co-location infrastructure. These servers were outside Defender for Cloud, outside Azure Monitor, and outside Azure Policy.
Symhas deployed Azure Arc across all 47 on-premises servers — bringing them under Azure Policy for configuration compliance, Defender for Servers for threat detection, and Azure Monitor for unified metrics and log collection alongside the Azure and OCI infrastructure.
Azure Arc Hybrid Deployment — Financial Services Production
“Our on-premises servers were invisible to our Azure security tooling. After Azure Arc, they appear in Defender for Cloud alongside our Azure and OCI resources. One security posture, one monitoring view, one management plane.”
— CTO, Global Asset Management Firm
We Configure for This Capability.
Extend Azure management to on-premises and multi-cloud VMs — Policy, Defender, Monitor, and extension management.
