Azure Arc

Azure Arc is a bridge that extends the Azure platform to help you build applications and services with the flexibility to run across datacenters, at the edge, and in multicloud environments. It provides a centralized, unified way to manage your entire environment by projecting your existing on-premises, edge, and multicloud resources into Azure Resource Manager so you have a single control plane to manage, govern, and secure your VMs, databases, Kubernetes clusters, and other cloud resources.

Husqvarna Group Boosts Operational Efficiency with Azure Adaptive Cloud

Swedish manufacturer Husqvarna Group deployed Azure Arc, Azure IoT Operations, and Azure OpenAI Service to unify its fragmented public cloud, hybrid, and on-premises factory infrastructure and enable real-time data insights across its global manufacturing network. The rollout achieved 98% faster data deployment and 50% lower infrastructure imaging costs. Using Azure OpenAI Service, the company also built Factory Companion, an AI chatbot that gives factory teams instant troubleshooting guidance based on historical maintenance data and machine documentation, moving maintenance from reactive toward predictive.
