Switch to Azure Business Continuity Center for your at scale BCDR management needs
In response to the evolving customer requirements and environments since COVID-19, including the shift towards hybrid work models and the increase in ransomware attacks, we have observed a growing trend among customers to invest in multiple vendors for data protection. To address these needs, we have developed the Azure Business Continuity (ABC) Center, a streamlined, centralized management center that simplifies backup and disaster recovery across various environments (Azure, Hybrid) and solutions (Azure Backup and Azure Site Recovery). Below are few resources to learn more about Azure Business Continuity Center:

Business Continuity with ABCC: Part 5: Monitoring protection - Microsoft Community Hub
ABCC, currently in public preview since November 2023, is designed as an enhanced version of the Backup Center and will eventually replace it. Getting started is simple, with no prerequisites or costs involved. Even if you've been using Backup Center, no additional action is needed to begin viewing your protection estate in Azure Business Continuity Center. To start with , simply navigate to Azure portal and search for Azure Business Continuity Center.
Azure Business Continuity Center (ABCC) providers enhanced experiences for business continuity, and we want our customers to adapt to it before it replaces the Backup Center. To support this transition, we have removed the Backup Center from the global search in the Azure portal, bust there is still option available from ABCC to go to Backup Center.
Backup Center will no longer appear in the Azure Portal search results across all regions. We encourage you to explore the Azure Business Continuity Center (ABCC) for your BCDR journey and provide your valuable feedback to help us enhance it to better meet your needs.
If you still want to launch Backup center, you can first go to Azure Business Continuity Center, from the Azure portal search.
Then, from ABCC help menu, kindly select “Go to Backup Center”.
If you are transitioning to the Backup Center, please share your reasons for doing so, including any missing capabilities, performance issues, or other concerns you may have encountered. Your insights are invaluable in helping us enhance the ABCC experience.
