    Hi Tony,
    I think there are several tools to stay on-prem and integrate the Azure tools with Azure Arc to enhance and optimize the current environment.
    I have some customers who want to get more familiar with Azure and start using the hybrid capabilites.
    Another good discussion point is the Antipatterns that are also available in CAF which addresses some of the challenges.

      Thank you, but I am concerned with moving from the cloud to on-prem. There seem to be many tools available to migrate TO the cloud, but little/nothing for LEAVING the cloud. Are you aware of any "Azure Migration Tools" or documents for migrating the other direction?
