From On-premises Datacenter to Azure Hybrid with Azure Arc for Servers
With Microsoft Azure Arc services you can bring Great Azure features to your on-prem datacenters, or to other Cloud providers. I wrote a #MVPLABSerie Blogposts about the benefits of Azure Hybrid which I like to share with the Tech Community: #MVPLABSerie Azure Hybrid with Arc Enabled Windows Servers on-premises #MVPLABSerie Azure Arc enabled Servers #MVPLABSerie Azure Update Management Center (Preview) and Azure Arc enabled Servers #MVPLABSerie Azure Arc enabled SQL Server Health Assessment #MVPLABSerie Azure Defender for Cloud with Azure Arc enabled SQL Server Security Baseline for Azure Arc enabled Servers and Arc Kubernetes As an IT Specialist of Datacenter(s) and Cloud I really like these Azure hybrid benefits to keep your datacenter up-to-date and secure! Hope this #MVPLABSerie is helpful for you and your Business. Cheers, JamesRe: Synapse Lake Database vs Synapse Serverless SQL Database
I found this blogpost for you : https://www.clearpeaks.com/choosing-your-data-warehouse-on-azure-synapse-dedicated-sql-pool-vs-synapse-serverless-sql-pool-vs-azure-sql-database-part-2/ and here at Microsoft Docs : https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/synapse-analytics/metadata/databaseMicrosoft Azure Central Monitoring for your Team Dashboards
Full Screen Monitoring When you install Azure Virtual Machines or Kubernetes Clusters in the Microsoft Cloud, It’s important to monitor your workload and keep your IT department in Control for the Business. Metric alerts in Azure Monitor work on top of multi-dimensional metrics. These metrics could be platform metrics, custom metrics, popular logs from Azure Monitor converted to metrics and Application Insights metrics. When you have important alerts, you want to take action based on your rules. Take action on Alerts Make your Own rules based on Alerts. IT Department of a company has most of the time different teams with each having it’s own responsibility of workloads in the Microsoft Cloud. For example, the Servicedesk is supporting the Business and they like to see if all the Services are up and running for the Business. The Infrastructure Team wants the same, but on deep level components of the Services like Memory, Network, Storage, CPU, Performance, Availability and more. The Technical Application Team is interested if the application is running and working with all the Interfaces, Databases, and/or Azure Pipelines. Each Team can build there own Azure Dashboard(s) in the Microsoft Cloud. Read the complete blogpost here @JamesvandenbergHow to monitor your Kubernetes clusters – Best Practices Series
Get best practices on how to monitor your Kubernetes clusters from field experts in this episode of the Kubernetes Best Practices Series. In this intermediate level deep dive, you will learn about monitoring and logging in Kubernetes from Dennis Zielke, Technology Solutions Professional in the Global Black Belts Cloud Native Applications team at Microsoft. Multi-cluster view from Azure Monitor Azure Monitor provides a multi-cluster view showing the health status of all monitored AKS clusters deployed across resource groups in your subscriptions. It shows AKS clusters discovered that are not monitored by the solution. Immediately you can understand cluster health, and from here you can drill down to the node and controller performance page, or navigate to see performance charts for the cluster. For AKS clusters discovered and identified as unmonitored, you can enable monitoring for that cluster at any time.

Microsoft Azure Monitor Insights Azure Monitor for containers is a feature designed to monitor the performance of container workloads deployed to either Azure Container Instances or managed Kubernetes clusters hosted on Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS). Monitoring your containers is critical, especially when you're running a production cluster, at scale, with multiple applications. Azure Monitor for containers gives you performance visibility by collecting memory and processor metrics from controllers, nodes, and containers that are available in Kubernetes through the Metrics API. Container logs are also collected. After you enable monitoring from Kubernetes clusters, these metrics and logs are automatically collected for you through a containerized version of the Log Analytics agent for Linux and stored in your Log Analytics workspace.

Hello JohnB, Maybe this Cookbook can help you with the Study of DPM2019 : https://charbelnemnom.com/my-third-book-is-published-microsoft-system-center-data-protection-manager-cookbook-scdpm-azurestack-azurebackup/ It's written by MVP Charbel.Re: Microsoft System Center DPM 2019 and Azure Backup Services
Hello JohnB, Microsoft DPM is a Backup product in the System Center line. I couldn't find a course for only System Center DPM 2019 here https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/learn/certifications/courses/browse/ at Microsoft. I will ask around if there is any study or exam by Microsoft. Maybe you can look for a third party educator?Public roadmap on Windows Server 2016 and containers, and Docker containers
