Azure ARC and Software Deployment
Hello all,
We currently have SCCM in our landscape. Looking to trial Azure Arc as a replacement for Software Updates deployment.
For those that already use Azure Arc for Software update deployments. What do you use for Software/Application deployments ?

Azure Arc can handle Windows and Linux patching, but for full software/application deployments most organizations still rely on Intune (for client devices), Configuration Manager co-management, or automation tools like Azure Automation / GitHub Actions / third-party deployment tools. Arc itself isn’t a full replacement for SCCM software distribution, so you’ll likely still need Intune or another deployment solution alongside Arc.
Hi,
We are planning to use Chocolatey in mix with Custom Script Extension to install certain application and create an automation to update those application in a certain schedule.
JTheseiraIs this still the best approach?
Cheers!
Personally I would prefer Winget with Custom Script Extension, but other than that, yes this is currently still the best approach.
