 Azure Automation State Configuration is an Azure configuration management service that allows you to write, manage, and
 compile PowerShell Desired State Configuration (DSC) [configurations](/powershell/dsc/configurations/configurations) for nodes in any cloud or on-premises datacenter. The service also imports [DSC Resources](/powershell/dsc/resources/resources), and assigns configurations to target nodes, all in the cloud. You can access Azure Automation State Configuration in the Azure portal by selecting **State configuration (DSC)** under **Configuration Management**.
