Preface

Microsoft Operations Management Suite (OMS) is a cloud-based collection of management services that is designed with hybrid management in mind. OMS simplifies IT management within your environment by providing you with solutions in order to manage and protect your on -premises and cloud environments. OMS is designed to provide you with a single-pane-of-glass view into the operation of your IT environment, and it is built to work across heterogeneous environments. It provides you with capabilities to manage your Windows and cross-platform devices across such clouds as Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Microsoft Azure, and because it is implemented as a cloud-based service, you can onboard to the service quickly and with minimal investment in infrastructure services and start to realize many benefits of OMS. In addition, the cloud-based nature of the service means that new features and capabilities are automatically delivered, saving you upgrade and maintenance-related costs. This cookbook aims to deliver recipes across various OMS solution offerings and provide guidance for working with core OMS components for Insights and Analytics, Protection and Recovery, Security and Compliance, and Automation and Control.
