The Microsoft SQL Server Optimization report now reports if inventory devices are hosted on-premises or in the cloud
The report now includes two additional columns titled "Hosted in" and "Hosted in cloud". Both columns indicate if the inventory device is hosted on-premises, or hosted in the cloud by a service provider. Note: the "Hosted in" column is an optional column, and the "Hosted in cloud" column is fixed.
Column name | Description |
---|---|
Hosted in |
Shows whether the inventory device is on-premises (the default, meaning the device is within your enterprise), or in a cloud operated by a particular service provider. For some cloud service providers (like AWS and Azure), the Hosted in value is set automatically through inventory. For other cloud service providers, you must make a selection manually. |
Hosted in cloud |
Indicates No if the inventory device is hosted on-premises (within your enterprise). Indicates Yes if the inventory device is hosted in the cloud by a cloud service provider. Most inventory devices hosted in the cloud are virtual machines; but this value is available for all inventory devices, because some cloud service providers also rent entire machines (for example, AWS provides dedicated hosts and bare metal instances). This is a convenience column for grouping/filtering inventory devices that are hosted in the cloud. The name of the cloud service provider for each inventory device is available in the Hosted in column. |
