Azure Update Manager provides a SaaS solution to manage and govern software updates to Windows and Linux machines across Azure, on-premises, and multicloud environments. It's an evolution of [Azure Automation Update management solution](../automation/update-management/overview.md) with new features and functionality, for assessment and deployment of software updates on a single machine or on multiple machines at scale.

> - On 31 August 2024, both Azure Automation Update Management and the Log Analytics agent it uses [will be retired](https://azure.microsoft.com/updates/were-retiring-the-log-analytics-agent-in-azure-monitor-on-31-august-2024/). Therefore, if you are using the Azure Automation Update Management solution, we recommend that you move to Azure Update Manager for your software update needs. Follow guidance in this document to move your machines and schedules from Automation Update Management to Azure Update Manager. For more information, see the [FAQs on retirement](https://aka.ms/aum-migration-faqs) You can [sign up](https://aka.ms/AUMLive) for monthly live sessions on migration including Q&A sessions.

If you remove the MMA agent from the machine without moving to Azure Update Manager, it will break the patching workflows for that machine.

> - If you are still using Azure Automation Update Management Solution, we recommend that you don't remove the the Microsoft Monitoring Agent (MMA) agents from the machines before completing the migration to Azure Update Manager as the migration tools expect the agent to be installed on the machines to be migrated. Additionally, if you remove the MMA agent from the machine before moving to Azure Update Manager, it will break the Automation Update Management patching workflows for that machine.

For the Azure Update Manager, both AMA and MMA aren't a requirement to manage software update workflows as it relies on the Microsoft Azure VM Agent for Azure VMs and Azure connected machine agent for Arc-enabled servers. When you perform an update operation for the first time on a machine, an extension is pushed to the machine, and it interacts with the agents to assess missing updates and install updates.

Azure Update Manager has no dependency on either the Azure Monitor Agent(AMA) or MMA agents. as it relies on the [Microsoft Azure Windows VM Agent](https://learn.microsoft.com/azure/virtual-machines/extensions/agent-windows) or the [Microsoft Azure Linux VM Agent](https://learn.microsoft.com/azure/virtual-machines/extensions/agent-linux) for Azure VMs and the [Azure connected machine agent](https://learn.microsoft.com/azure/azure-arc/servers/agent-overview) for Arc-enabled servers.
