Welcoming the Next Wave at Build: New Partners Join the Azure Arc ISV Program
We are thrilled to announce the second round of partners joining the Azure Arc ISV Partner Program for Microsoft Build. Following its successful launch at Ignite last fall, this innovative program continues to grow, enabling partners to publish their offers on the Azure Marketplace for deployment to Arc-enabled Kubernetes clusters. With this new wave, we’re also expanding the solution landscape by introducing four new categories—Security, Networking & Service Mesh, API Infrastructure & Management, and Monitoring & Observability. These additions reflect the evolving needs of hybrid and multi-cloud environments and highlight the breadth of innovation our partners bring to the Azure Arc ecosystem. This new wave of collaborations marks a significant milestone in our journey to foster a vibrant ecosystem of innovation and excellence. This expansion marks a significant step forward in building a dynamic and innovative ecosystem that drives success for both customers and partners alike. What is Azure Arc? Azure Arc is the bridge that extends Azure to on-premises, edge, or even multi-cloud environments. It simplifies governance and management by delivering the consistency of the Azure platform. The ability to create offerings for Azure Arc in the marketplace is a significant benefit to our partners, allowing them to integrate with Azure services and tools and access a large and diverse customer base. Azure Arc enables partners to validate their applications and offer them to customers so they can manage their Kubernetes cluster on Azure. Edge developers can leverage these building blocks to develop their enterprise applications, and we aim to provide them with a one-stop shop in Azure Marketplace. Meet our partners The Azure Arc ISV Partner Program is focusing on expanding categories such as security, networking & service mesh, API infrastructure & management, monitoring & observability. We are excited to introduce our esteemed partners, HashiCorp, Traefik Labs, Solo.io, and Dynatrace, who have Arc-enabled their applications and will now be available on the Azure Marketplace. Here’s a closer look at their offerings: HashiCorp HashiCorp is a leading provider of infrastructure automation and security solutions for modern, dynamic IT environments. HashiCorp Vault Enterprise for Azure Arc enables organizations to manage access to secrets and protect sensitive data using identity-based security principles. As enterprises shift to hybrid and multi-cloud architectures, traditional perimeter-based security models fall short. Vault helps to address this challenge by authenticating every user and application, authorizing access based on identity and policy, encrypting secrets, and injecting just-in-time credentials. It also helps to automate the rotation of secrets, certificates, and encryption keys—reducing operational risk and improving compliance. By integrating with Azure Arc, Vault Enterprise can be deployed and managed alongside other Azure Arc-enabled services. This allows organizations to consistently enforce zero trust security practices—whether workloads run on-premises, in Azure, or in other cloud environments—while benefiting from centralized governance and compliance visibility through the Azure control plane. To deploy HashiCorp Vault Enterprise for Azure Arc, visit aka.ms/HashiCorpForAzureArc. To learn more about HashiCorp Vault Enterprise on Azure Arc, visit HashiCorp Vault Traefik Labs Traefik for Azure Arc empowers organizations to modernize and scale their AI and API runtime infrastructure across any Kubernetes in hybrid and multi-cloud environments. With over 3.3 billion downloads and 250,000+ production nodes globally, Traefik can be deployed in three modular and progressive phases—Application Proxy, API & AI Gateway, and API Management—meeting users where they are on their journey and enabling seamless transitions without vendor lock-in or disruptive migrations. Traefik helps deliver zero-config service discovery across Kubernetes and other orchestrators, efficiently replacing legacy tools with simplified traffic routing and management. As needs grow, they more easily transition to comprehensive AI and API Gateway capabilities with centralized authentication and authorization, semantic caching for AI workloads, and data governance for responsible AI deployments. The final evolution helps introduce complete API governance, observability, self-service developer portals, and instant mock APIs—enabling unified management across both traditional and AI-enabled services without disruptive architectural changes. By combining Azure Arc with Traefik, organizations gain more unified control over API and AI workloads, enhanced by features like semantic caching and content guard. This integration helps bridge fragmented environments, accelerates deployment, and enable clearer versioning boundaries—fundamental for scaling AI and API services across distributed systems.

Solo.io Solo.io is a leading provider of service mesh and API infrastructure solutions for cloud-native applications. Istio for Azure Arc, powered by Solo.io, helps deliver an enterprise-grade service mesh experience through Istio in Ambient Mode—specifically optimized for Azure Arc-enabled Kubernetes clusters. This modern, sidecar-less architecture helps to simplify deployment, reduces operational overhead, and improves resource efficiency while maintaining Istio’s advanced capabilities. The solution provides robust Layer 7 traffic management, zero-trust security with mutual TLS and fine-grained authorization, and deep observability through distributed tracing and logging. It’s ideal for IT operations, DevOps, and security teams managing workloads in regulated industries like finance, healthcare, retail, and technology—where resilience, security, and visibility are important. By using Istio for Azure Arc, organizations can deploy and manage service mesh consistently across hybrid and multi-cloud environments, accelerating application delivery while maintaining control and compliance.

Revert to old Planner?
As of today, the new Planner version has been rolled out for our organisation. MS Planner is pretty much the most important tool for our project management. With the update, we can no longer copy plans without deleting all tags. In our organisation, the tags assign the responsible department to the respective tasks. This makes them extremely important. "Template Plan": Plan after we did a copy&paste: Even the Tags have to be renamed: Is there a way to revert to the old Planner? Is Microsoft aware of this problem? Kind Regards Jonathan
Request to Remove Personal/Outdated Information from Bing Search
Hello Bing Team, I need urgent help regarding two Bing search results displaying personal or outdated information about me. LinkedIn snippet shows outdated information: https://ca.linkedin.com/in/tugbakalaman Bing still displays an old job title and company name, even though my LinkedIn profile was updated months ago. I tried using the content removal tool, but it didn’t work. Support told me the result may persist until Bing manually clears it. Bold.pro page contains personal address: https://ca.bold.pro/my/tugb This result shows my full home address and previous employment history, which I no longer want online. I do not use this profile anymore and urgently request its removal for privacy and safety reasons. I was directed here by Microsoft support to raise this issue for manual review. Please help me resolve this. Thank you for your time and support.
Bookings - Update to email of staff is not going through
I am editing the email of the staff that I currently have and when I try to change her email and click save, it doesn't do anything. I was able to change the name and color assignment though but the email change (even if editable) didn't reflect. Is that a bug or it is really not allowed and I should just delete the old one and add a new staff?Arc Jumpstart Newsletter: March 2025 Edition
