"Werner Broekhuizen, Senior Presales Consultant Datacenter & Cloud Solutions at PQR, describes Azure Local as follows: "Microsoft has brought the cloud to your data center. So you have the same functionality as in the cloud, but at your own pace." In other words, one may have cloud ambitions, but one shouldn't rush to hand over their data and workloads to someone else's computer, which is what the public cloud simply is."
"The PQR experts spoke of the fairly straightforward basis of Azure Local, formerly known as Stack HCI. Hyper-V and clustering around it form the building blocks for the solution, from 1 node to 16. The revenue model is based on cores, allowing you to use validated server hardware such as Dell, as you may have done before. The difference is that Azure Local can be managed from the Azure Portal, just like public cloud workloads."
Azure Local brings core Azure cloud capabilities into an organization’s own data center, enabling Hyper-V-based clustering from one to sixteen nodes and the use of validated server hardware. The licensing and revenue model is core-based, and management can be integrated into the Azure Portal when explicitly enabled. Azure Arc provides the interfacing layer between the on-premises environment and the public Azure Cloud, enabling gradual migration and unified operations. Use cases align with desires typically addressed by VMware or Nutanix, with the added benefit of seamless transition to Azure Cloud when readiness allows, while keeping data and workloads under local control.
