Azure expands local and hybrid options for AI and control
🔒 Microsoft is expanding Azure with on‑premises, edge, and hybrid options to deliver AI, resilience, and operational sovereignty. Azure Local provides integrated compute, storage, and networking on customer premises with GA features like Microsoft 365 Local and NVIDIA Blackwell GPUs, plus previews for disconnected operations and multi‑rack scale. Coupled with Azure IoT, Microsoft Fabric, and Azure Arc management enhancements, the updates enable near‑real‑time analytics, secure device identity, and a unified control plane for distributed estates. The goal is to accelerate AI and analytics while preserving data residency, continuity, and compliance for regulated or mission‑critical environments.
