As cloud technology has matured, hybrid and multi-cloud approaches have become commonplace. Enterprises have discovered that not all applications are suitable for the public cloud, meaning on-premise data centres are still active, and each public cloud has its own strengths and weaknesses, driving businesses to mix-and-match to suit their needs. This results in interoperability challenges for multi-cloud environments.

Enterprises today want real-time business insights to make decisions that improve operational efficiency and customer engagement and present newer revenue opportunities. However, the promise of the data-driven business falls short due to gaps in data management. These gaps exist because data in the modern enterprise doesn’t exist only behind firewalls and within organizational premises.

Azure is the public cloud computing platform of Microsoft and it offers: Azure comprises more than 600 cloud services and supports varied operating systems, databases and developer tools. And the best part (in our opinion)? Splunk On-Call integrates with Microsoft Azure to help on-call teams improve incident response for Azure-based environments.

On the heels of several exciting developments about Splunk Cloud Platform announced at.conf22, I am excited to share today that Data Manager now supports onboarding of Microsoft Azure data sources, effective immediately.

Today I’m going to speak about another important Best practice, Tips, and Tricks that you need to know before you start to develop your Logic App solutions: Choose properly your developer tools.
