The Service
ALSO Cloud Management Service provision relates to operations management in the Microsoft Azure environment .

Many customers expect these tasks to be managed by their partners. ALSO lets you provide these services even if they are not part of your core competencies.
The service follows a top-down approach to customer Cloud solutions. From the general definition of Business solutions running in the cloud to the Azure components. Solutions can consist of any combination of Azure Platform as a Service (PaaS), Azure Software as a Service (SaaS) as well as Azure Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) resources. The service adds insight intocustomers’ Cloud setup with monitoring, enhances the security posture of Azure Platform by patching virtual machines in Azure, and increases reliability by configuring and monitoring the backup of services in Azure.
