 Azure Automation supports management throughout the lifecycle of your infrastructure and applications. Common scenarios include:
 
 * **Schedule tasks** - stop VMs or services at night and turn on during the day, weekly or monthly recurring maintenance workflows.
-* **Write runbooks** - Author PowerShell, PowerShell Workflow, graphical, Python 2 and 3, and DSC runbooks in common languages.
 * **Build and deploy resources** - Deploy virtual machines across a hybrid environment using runbooks and Azure Resource Manager templates. Integrate into development tools, such as Jenkins and Azure DevOps.
-* **Configure VMs** - Assess and configure Windows and Linux machines with configurations for the infrastructure and application.
-* **Share knowledge** - Transfer knowledge into the system on how your organization delivers and maintains workloads.
-* **Retrieve inventory** - Get a complete inventory of deployed resources for targeting, reporting, and compliance.
-* **Find changes** - Identify and isolate machine changes that can cause misconfiguration and improve operational compliance. Remediate or escalate them to management systems.
 * **Periodic maintenance** - to execute tasks that need to be performed at set timed intervals like purging stale or old data, or reindex a SQL database.
 * **Respond to alerts** - Orchestrate a response when cost-based, system-based, service-based, and/or resource utilization alerts are generated.
 * **Hybrid automation** - Manage or automate on-premises servers and services like SQL Server, Active Directory, SharePoint Server, etc.
 * **Azure resource lifecycle management** - for IaaS and PaaS services.
