What a busy week for Azure Services! Microsoft Inspire took place this week and a plethora of new announcements were shared. Announcements include: The next generation of Azure Stack HCI, Numerous Azure Kubernetes Service announcements, Azure IoT Connector to ingest data from Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) devices and Azure Monitor Logs connector.
The new Microsoft Azure Stack HCI provides the best-in-class hyper-converged infrastructure stack, which integrates seamlessly into existing on-premises environments using existing processes and tools. It also is delivered as an Azure hybrid service, which natively integrates into your Azure environment, comes with subscription-based billing, and a dedicated support team. It provides many Azure Hybrid services which can be leveraged to make on-premises environments better.

IoT Connector enables a new set of scenarios like remote patient monitoring, telehealth, clinical trials, and smart hospitals by bringing PHI data from devices into Azure API for FHIR, which can be used along with other clinical data to enable newer insights and clinical workflows. It can accept JSON-based messages from IoMT devices, use mapping templates to transform device data into a FHIR standard resource, and finally persist the resource into Azure API for FHIR. Use it seamlessly with Azure IoT Central, Azure IoT Hub, and other IoT cloud gateways.
Create automated workflows using hundreds of actions for a variety of services with Azure Logic Apps and Power Automate. The Azure Monitor logs connector is now generally available and can be used to build workflows that retrieve data from the Azure Monitor Logs workspace or Application Insights component.
