Hey John, been a big fan of your channel for some time! As a Microsoft Azure Stack engineer, you covered everything incredibly well! One small caveat, the Azure Stack Edge device can be “connected” to an Azure Stack Hub in an air gapped environment. I know it’s definitely an “edge” case scenario - see what I did there :) But again, thank you for all your content and all you do for the community!
Watching this as I've started to get a bit more into the hybrid space. Phenomenal video @johnn as always. Appreciate how thorough you are, while putting things in normal language and connecting all the dots with how these solutions fit into the greater Azure ecosystem.
Ace walk through again John, hope you get to present at Ignite :) They really need to get you on to do a session (from beginner to intermediate to advanced then show how to truly "scale"!)
@@NTFAQGuy PG talk? (dont follow)?) Seriously - the way you present / makes most ppl I know who've watched your guides feel at ease from an IT director to a support person to a business mgr, hence - seriously / if you get the chance hope you can. Really ace stuff you do / so thanks either way
Product group . They do most of the ignite presentations. Appreciate the feedback and glad you like the content. I’ll keep putting out content here :) no worries :)
Every time I stare at this I think the world has gone nuts. The only reason I'd even go near this was if my techs only really knew azure and bring on prem that way makes some sense so you have a consistent tech base. For everything else, I would just build and use legacy IT, hypervisors and so on. I have subscribed because John is clearly a peer.
remember as I talk about Azure can mean many different things. It could be the security capabilities, could be the management, could be you want single pane of glass for container management. Does not have to mean bringing VMs on Azure fabric on-premises :-)
@@NTFAQGuy I've been doing IT since the 90s. Fully concede I am no where with cloud. Which makes it one hell of a mountain to climb looking at your stuff. Not your fault, and certainly its probably scaled above the SMB workload and setups I sent too long working with. I'd go with what I know rather than drown in a sea of unknown. I have also always had management that do not wish to spend/invest, so shoe string challenge always applies. I'm currently in an FT100 org, and its interesting to see that they are in fact moving away from anything but SAAS. I think they have concluded that they are not interested in anything but hosted platforms and those platforms can do the work. And in a way, its hard to argue. When I look at either azure or AWS now, its a huge sea of products, and they have a lack of change control ;)
Great explanation John, after doing some research and watching this video i am leaning to propose Azure stack HCI 21H2 for our organization as we are due to replace our datacenter hardware plus Microsoft will be phasing out Hyper V in the near future, Just need to manage the Licensing + Azure Subscription cost. HCI21H2 is perfect for DR(ASR) and backup.
Great video as always John! I’m curious what screen/TV you have there for your presentations? I’m looking to do something similar in my home office. Thanks!
Hi John..Hope you're doing good. I have a question. Is it possible to do auto scalling on on premises servers based on the traffic and cpu utilisation?
Hi John, I was exploring Azure Arc for kubernetes cluster and i was able to connect an external k8s cluster and make it visible in AZ portal. However, i am not able to view any insights or logs or metrics. Do we have to do any additional configurations for this, like azure workspace?
Great video John. Do you have anything on the topic for sign in to Windows virtual machine in Azure using Azure Active Directory authentication (Preview)? I have customers prompting us for this as a means of getting rid of ADDS but this doesnt seem a good enough replacement.
I’ve covered it in other videos but not a focus video. It likely comes down to the services and if they want Kerberos etc. aadds could be option if no other for adds on prem . If it’s only login to azure vms then depending on os the aad auth may be an option
I want Azure AD user accounts stored in the cloud to have speedy on-prem account login and document sync. We only have a 1 gigabit Internet connection, but 10 gig building backbone and 10 gig NICs to onsite Dell R730 servers. There does not seem to be any solution for onsite replication and access to user data in the cloud using Azure AD Premium.
@@NTFAQGuy The problem is that sometimes the Internet is slow, and many people may be logging on to devices at the same time (school environment). The gigabit Internet connection is a bottleneck to access user data stored in the cloud. Local replication of user data allows faster account loading.

Best presentation on the hybrid topic I've seen so far. Thks!
Thanks!
100% Agreed
Another well done video, excellent stuff. Thank you for taking time to do these, I really appreciate them.
My pleasure
Thank You, Thank You, Thank You, Everything I needed in exactly 53 Minutes and 35 Seconds
Thanks John, excellent overview of how all these services interact with each other.
Thanks!
Loved the way you explain the concepts, really appreciate. Thanks John
Thanks.
Wish we had other mentors like John in other technologies that can explain simple and useful.
Very kind, thank you
Had to pause at 4:00 min mark to thank you for sharing such insightful stuff. Love how you take things from Macro level down
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you, well explained
Magnificient stuff John. Loved it! Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it
Wow, this was a great overview for all of these different azure solutions. Awesome video. Thanks!!!
My pleasure
As always! Great content and well explained! Thanks John!
Thank you
As usual great explanations with awesome examples and content
merci John, what a content! I am fed for the week.
Glad you enjoyed it! 🤙
Wonderful way of explaining capacities, real understanding!
Thank you.
This was a GREAT overview of Azure ARC. Thank you so much. You should get residuals for the money MS is about to make from our company. 😁
Lol, thank you

No,plans :) mainly PG talk. I’ll stick to my channel :)

👍 but there is no phasing out of hyperv. Only the free hyperv server. Still part of windows server. Hci still great choice.
Great explanation as allways!
Thank you!
as always ,,thank you
Great video as always John! I’m curious what screen/TV you have there for your presentations? I’m looking to do something similar in my home office. Thanks!
Have a playlist on my setup
@@NTFAQGuy Thanks John. Literally 2 seconds after I wrote this, I found the playlist. Thanks!
Hi John..Hope you're doing good. I have a question. Is it possible to do auto scalling on on premises servers based on the traffic and cpu utilisation?
For VMs thats VMSS. Stack Hub has VMSS. For workloads like containers thats a common feature that Kubernetes provides.
thank you!

Yes, docs walk through

Whenever I see you .You remind me of Popeye The Sailor Man 😂😂😂
Anyways , your explanation is helping me a lot in understanding Azure services .
I want Azure AD user accounts stored in the cloud to have speedy on-prem account login and document sync. We only have a 1 gigabit Internet connection, but 10 gig building backbone and 10 gig NICs to onsite Dell R730 servers. There does not seem to be any solution for onsite replication and access to user data in the cloud using Azure AD Premium.
not sure i understand your question. If you have data in the cloud on services that trust AAD i'm not sure where onsite replication is in the picture.
@@NTFAQGuy The problem is that sometimes the Internet is slow, and many people may be logging on to devices at the same time (school environment). The gigabit Internet connection is a bottleneck to access user data stored in the cloud. Local replication of user data allows faster account loading.
Is their cost for adding ASC and monitor to your environment?
i'll be doing a future video on ASC but basically depends what features, same as in Azure. azure.microsoft.com/en-us/pricing/details/security-center/
I can’t pay attention with the big guns in the way. Unusually big specially for a IT tech.
Lol
Why not have a furnace where your company burns money? 😂😂😂
