Multi-cloud and hybrid network environments power new demands of remote work, 5G\/Edge connectivity, microservices based workloads, and increased cloud adoption. The advent of the cloud has added agility, cost benefits, and brought along the need for management of the infrastructure. Management and monitoring of the network underlying these complex applications plays a key role in ensuring end-user satisfaction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ms.portal.azure.com\/#view\/Microsoft_Azure_Network\/NetworkWatcherMenuBlade\/~\/overview\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Azure Network Watcher<\/a> provides an entire suite of tools to visualize, monitor, diagnose, and troubleshoot network issues across Azure and Hybrid cloud environments. Network Watcher enables customers to detect anomalies across Azure and hybrid networks with comprehensive wide coverage, through a guided and intuitive drilled-down experience. Network Watcher helps customers monitor, manage, and understand their own networks for performance, connectivity, security, and compliance issues and furthermore, empowers customers to troubleshoot efficiently with actionable insights and proactive alerting, thus effectively reducing the mean time to resolve network issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/azure.microsoft.com\/en-us\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/ab8a0431-8c31-4667-a555-cd27d1d31464.webp\" alt=\"A screenshot displaying a topology of connectivity test created from on-premises ARC enabled machine with Azure Monitor Agent enabled , with packet loss and RTT metrics.\" title=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The following new feature enhancements across Network Watcher suite aim to provide timely and complete visibility and actionable insights to customers of their hybrid networks in a manner that is easily accessible, readily usable, and reliable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"visualize-resource-and-network-health-with-topology\">Visualize resource and network health with Topology<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Topology enables users to quickly acquire system context, comprehend state, and troubleshoot issues efficiently by visualizing the resources in a network.
