Azure Automation User Hybrid Worker enables execution of PowerShell and Python scripts directly on machines for managing guest workloads or as a gateway to environments that are not accessible from Azure. You can configure Windows & Linux Azure Virtual Machine. [Azure Arc-enabled Server](../../azure-arc/servers/overview.md), [Arc-enabled VMware vSphere VM](../../azure-arc/vmware-vsphere/overview.md) and [Azure Arc-enabled SCVMM](../../azure-arc/system-center-virtual-machine-manager/overview.md) as User Hybrid Worker by installing Hybrid Worker extension.
