Similarly, as Microsoft Monitor Agent (MMA) is on a deprecation path, Azure Monitor Agent (AMA) is the recommended replacement and there are a number of requests to support AMA specific policies. AMA is currently in preview, and we are working with the product group to ensure that the policies are updated as soon as possible. Some policies are ready, however, the initiative to activate all components is still being worked on.

### Azure Database for MariaDB (Jan 2024)

Azure Database for MariaDB is being deprecated, with the retirement process beginning on January 19, 2024. Due to retirement Azure is phasing out MariaDB policies, aligning with a strategic shift to Azure Database for MySQL - Flexible Server. This includes deprecating Azure Landing Zone (ALZ) custom policies 'Diagnostic Settings (Deploy)' and 'Public Endpoint (Deny)' for MariaDB. These policies are becoming redundant with MariaDB's phase-out:

1. Diagnostic Settings (Deploy) for MariaDB
2. Public Endpoint (Deny) for MariaDB

**Action for Users:** Users are encouraged to migrate to Azure Database for MySQL - Flexible Server. This migration will involve updating or replacing existing MariaDB-related policies with ones suitable for the MySQL Flexible Server environment.

For more information on Azure Database for MariaDB, its retirement, and the migration process, visit [What's happening to Azure Database for MariaDB?](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/mariadb/whats-happening-to-mariadb).

### Sovereign Clouds (US Gov and China)

Numerous GitHub issues related to sovereign clouds are currently within our scope, and our team is actively endeavoring to resolve these concerns.

- Fixed a typo in the Private DNS Zones initiative for the policy definition IDs for Databrics (corrected to Databricks). While not a breaking change, it is recommended to redeploy the initiative to ensure the correct policy definition IDs are used if you are using Private DNS Zones for Databricks - specifically if you have configured any exclusions or overrides for the Databricks policy definitions, as these rely on the policy definition ID (which has been updated). You will need to recreate the exclusions or overrides for Databricks if you choose not to redeploy the initiative.

- Bug fix for Portal Accelerator deployment when deploying using a single platform subscription. Previously, a single tenant deployment would have three failed deployments for diagnostic settings which were looking for non-existent management groups (Management, Identity and Connectivity). This has been fixed and the deployment will now succeed.
- Added drop down selection option for Azure Private Link Private DNS Zones as part of portal based ALZ deployment experience where you can select to deploy or not to deploy a subset of Private Link Private DNS zones.
