Is Azure ATP an update/replacement for ATA?

Question

So, I'm having trouble understanding if Azure ATP is an Update/Addition to Microsoft ATA, or if this is a complete standalone product?

Was just made aware that MS is using ATP for 3 different products at least

Windows Defender ATP: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/windowsforbusiness/windows-atp

Office 365 ATP: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/exchange-online-advanced-threat-protection-service-description.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396

Azure ATP: https://cloudblogs.microsoft.com/enterprisemobility/2017/09/27/introducing-azure-advanced-threat-protection/

So it looks like MS is doing whatever they can to confuse people ;)

This may clear the confusion :)

Windows Defender Advanced Threat Protection:&nbsp;Allows IT Admins to view&nbsp;Advanced Persistent Malware&nbsp;in an Enterprise network post breach scenario (what malware is there, what it is doing/what it did and actions to take)
Microsoft Advanced Threat Analytics:&nbsp;Allows IT Admins to&nbsp;monitor hackers/attackers&nbsp;who are inside a network (not malware), what they are doing/what they did and actions to take. Monitors PtH attacks, persistence, golden tickets etc.&nbsp;
Office 365 Advanced Threat Protection:&nbsp;Detects and dynamically blocks&nbsp;malware laden emails&nbsp;- what malware it is, what it did/what it tried to do and who received the email etc.&nbsp;

ATA is analysing trafik / logons to Domain controlers in ADATP is sandboxing attachements and Links in e-mailsnothing to do with each other at all.

I've watched the Ignite session and it looks like Azure ATP is a cloud based evolution of ATA. Some of the Azure ATP enhancements will come down to ATA in the future (e.g. no more resource hogging of the ata "lightweigth" client), but Azure ATP will be separately licensed.
