Thanks for replying, client want to continue to use existing monitorning for some more time.

Hi Azurebeginner-1,

 

I think as those Systems often work only with direct LAN Connection, you will need a VPN Connection or Express Route to Azure to use them in the Future.

 

Maybe also a Collector Server in The Cloud, that works as a "Satellite"/"Connector" in Azure and collects the Informations there to forward them afterwards to OnPrem might be working, but not every Monitoring Solution Vendor has a Solution like this in his portfolio.

 

i would realy strongly recommend to use the Azure Monitoring and Logging Solutions, as they offer much more then many OnPrem Solutions. And Azure can easily works the other way around and monitors also OnPrem.

 

Kind Regards, Peter
