The following section describes new features in development for Managed DevOps Pools.

* **Service Tag and new IPs**: Managed DevOps Pools control plane is going to add new IP outgoing addresses and is going to publish a service tag to provide a convenient mechanism to allow outbound traffic from Managed DevOps Pools. **Planned for October 2025.**

* **Log analytics**: Managed DevOps Pools is adding support so you can configure your pools to emit logs into Log analytics. The Log Analytics tool in the Azure portal lets you run and edit log queries against data in the Azure Monitor Logs store. Use Log Analytics to analyze and visualize log data using [Kusto Query Language (KQL)](/azure/azure-monitor/logs/get-started-queries) or the point-and-click experience provided in [Log Analytics simple mode](/azure/azure-monitor/logs/log-analytics-simple-mode). **Planned for October 2025.**

* **Public Static IP**: We're adding support for public static IP addresses in Managed DevOps Pools to enable access to external resources once [Default outbound access for VMs in Azure is retired](https://azure.microsoft.com/updates?id=default-outbound-access-for-vms-in-azure-will-be-retired-transition-to-a-new-method-of-internet-access). This change with Azure will affect Managed DevOps Pools, Azure Virtual Machine Scale Set agent pools, and self-hosted pools that will create a new virtual network and they will not be able to access anything outside the agent without infrastructure like a NAT gateway. New Managed DevOps Pools instances created after September 30, 2025 will be created with a NAT gateway by default and it will incur Azure costs associated. You can model how much it will cost by using the Azure cost calculator. **Planned for October 2025**.

* **Purge agents**: We're adding the ability for you to manually recycle your agents if desired. **Planned for October 2025.**
21+
* **Azure Pipelines image versions**: When a new image version breaks your pipeline, you can configure an [image version override demand](./demands.md#imageversionoverride) in every pipeline to [revert to the version used by the last successful pipeline run](./troubleshooting.md#check-to-see-if-there-has-been-an-image-update). With the proposed feature, you can select the image version of an Azure Pipelines image in the Managed DevOps Pools user interface, and pin your pool's image to a specific image version. **Planned for November 2025**.

* **Pool Alias**: We're adding the ability to add an Azure DevOps Pool name in addition to the Azure resource name to address [this ask from our community](https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/t/Managed-Devops-Pools-Custom-agent-pool/10834336). **Planned for October 2025**.

* **Spot Virtual Machines instances**: Reduce your Azure cost [by up to 90%](/azure/architecture/guide/spot/spot-eviction#understand-spot-vm-pricing) by switching your non-time-critical pipelines to Spot Virtual Machines. CI/CD workloads make ideal candidates to use Spot Virtual Machines due to the ephemeral nature of CI/CD agents. For more information on Spot Virtual Machines, see [Spot Virtual Machines overview](https://azure.microsoft.com/products/virtual-machines/spot). **Planned for early 2026.**
