Announcing seamless integration of Apache Kafka with Azure Cosmos DB in Azure Native Confluent
Integrate Azure Cosmos DB with Kafka applications Confluent announced general availability (GA) of the fully managed V2 Kafka connector for Azure Cosmos DB, enabling users to seamlessly integrate their Azure Cosmos DB containers with Kafka-powered event streaming applications. without worrying about provisioning, scaling, or managing the connector infrastructure. The Confluent Cosmos DB v2 connector offers significant advantages as compared to the v1 connector in terms of higher throughput, enhanced security and observability, and increased reliability. Seamless Integration with Azure Native Confluent We are excited to announce a new capability in Azure Native Confluent service that enables users to create and configure Confluent-managed Cosmos DB Kafka connectors (v2) for Azure Cosmos DB containers through a direct, seamless experience in the Azure portal. Users can also provision and manage environments, Kafka clusters and Kafka topics from within the Azure Native Confluent service, creating a holistic end-to-end experience to integrate with Azure Cosmos DB. This eliminates the need for users to switch between the Azure and Confluent Cloud portal. Key Highlights Bi-directional Support: Allows users to create source connectors to stream data from Cosmos DB to Kafka topics, or sink connectors to move data from Kafka into Cosmos DB. Secure Authentication: Users can authenticate to Kafka cluster using service accounts, enabling least-privilege access controls to provision the connectors - aligned with Confluent’s recommended security guidelines. Create a Confluent Cosmos DB (v2) Kafka Connector from Azure portal The following section summarizes the key steps required to provision the connector from the Azure Native Confluent service. Navigate to the native Confluent resource in Azure. Navigate to Connectors -> Create new connector You can also create an environment, cluster and topic from within the Azure Portal. Choose the desired connector type Source: to stream data from Azure Cosmos DB Sink to move data into Azure Cosmos DB Select ‘Azure Cosmos DB V2’ as the connector plugin Enter the connector name. Then, select the required Kafka topics, Azure Cosmos DB account and database. Select Service Account authentication and provide a name for the service account. When the connector is created, this will create a new service account on Confluent Cloud. Optionally, you can also select the user-account based authentication by provisioning an API key on Confluent Cloud. Do the required connector configurations. Enter the topic container mapping in the form of ‘topic1#container1,topic2#container2…’ Review the configuration summary and click Create. Your connector will appear in the list with real-time status indicators. Other Resources Try out the Azure Native Confluent Service right away! Every new sign-up gets a free $1000 credit!

Introducing Multi-Subscription Monitoring for Dynatrace on Azure We’re excited to announce the general availability of Multi-Subscription Monitoring (MSM) for the Azure Native Dynatrace Service (ANDS). This powerful new capability allows customers to monitor multiple Azure subscriptions through a single Dynatrace resource—significantly simplifying the setup of observability for multiple Azure subscriptions at scale. Organizations often operate across dozens—or even hundreds—of Azure subscriptions. Until now, when setting up observability with the Azure Native Dynatrace Service, customers had to create one Dynatrace resource per Azure subscription, leading to higher operational overhead and some redundant configurations. With Multi-Subscription Monitoring, customers can now consolidate monitoring of up to 20 Azure subscriptions into a single Dynatrace resource, streamlining their operations and reducing complexity. 🧩 How It Works The feature is available directly in the Azure portal: Navigate to your Dynatrace resource. Go to Environment Configuration > Monitored Subscriptions. Click Add Subscriptions. Select the subscriptions you want to monitor—Dynatrace will automatically detect those where your managed identity has the required permissions. Click Add. Once added, the subscriptions will appear with an “Active” status, and diagnostic settings will be applied automatically based on your tag rules. ⚠️ Note: You can link up to 20 subscriptions per Dynatrace resource. If you reach the 20 subscriptions linked to one Dynatrace resource, you have to create a new Dynatrace resource in the next Azure subscription you want to link. To use MSM, the managed identity associated with your Dynatrace resource must have Owner permissions on the target subscriptions. 📘 Learn More Check out the article here for step-by-step guidance and stay tuned for updates on the Azure Tech Community blog. We look forward to your feedback! Announcing Enhanced Customization for Dynatrace OneAgent Installation on Azure VMs We’re excited to introduce a powerful new capability in the Azure Native Dynatrace Service: The installation of Dynatrace OneAgent on Virtual Machines (VMs) now supports additional parameters. This enhancement adds flexibility and control to your observability workflows—directly from the Azure portal. Previously, customers installing Dynatrace OneAgent via the Azure portal needed to manually configure important options. This included enabling system logs, choosing infrastructure-only monitoring, or setting proxy configurations. These settings were only available through CLI-based setups or post-installation. This manual configuration created friction for certain use cases, including the following: Security-conscious teams wanting to pre-configure log ingestion, proxy settings and custom installation paths. SREs managing multiple subscriptions desiring to predefine host groups and network zones for better organization and routing. With this update, we’re providing advanced configuration and automation. What’s New: Full Parameter Control at Install Time You can now configure the following parameters during agent installation via the Azure portal or CLI: Parameter Description Monitoring Mode Enable full-stack or infra-only monitoring Host Group Assign host to a logical group Network Zone Route traffic through a specific network zone Proxy Define address of proxy server Custom Host Name Custom host name for agent Enable Log Monitoring Enable/disable log monitoring Enable Auto Update Auto-update agent version Access to System Logs Enable/disable system log collection Enable Automatic Ingestion Enable/disable auto-ingestion Extensions ingest port Set custom ingest port StatsD Port Set custom StatsD port These parameters are optional, giving you the freedom to tailor the installation to your environment’s needs. 🔍 Learn More To explore the full list of parameters and their usage, check out the official Dynatrace documentation: Customize OneAgent installation on Linux — Dynatrace Docs We look forward to your feedback!Americas & EMEA Fabric Engineering Connection call

Looking for some general feedback from ISV, SI, MSP community... We're a mid-sized ISV with some enterprise services capability focused on deployments, cloud migration of both our own and some Microsoft security workloads. We've never used ECIF, but have a few targets where it would be valuable. I'm getting great support from Microsoft program team to onboard to the program and expect to have us activated shortly. Scope-wise, we have a handful of targets and would probably be pleased to execute with them in upcoming year. Question - what are your experiences with ECIF for Fed? What's the "operational lift" to manage a program and capture this benefit? Has this worked well for you? Has it been cumbersome? Any particular areas we should especially focus attention to ensure smooth execution? Any general guidance appreciated.
