Azure Monitor Agent (AMA) replaces the Log Analytics Agent (MMA/OMS) for Windows and Linux virtual machines, scale sets, and on premise and Arc-enabled servers. The [benefits of migrating to Azure Monitor Agent](../agents/azure-monitor-agent-migration.md) include enhanced security, cost-effectiveness, performance, manageability and reliability.
