What you can expect from Arc

Most “headless” setups stop at the Content Management System and Front End, leaving teams to figure out security, integrations, operations and scale later.   That’s where projects stall. Arc is built differently. It gives you complete platform operations for headless. 

From day 1 you get:

•   A front-end host in your tenant
•  Backend-for-frontend and Experience APIs
•  Exterprise-grade DevOps pipelines fully supported, deploying your code  
•   24/7 monitoring, observability, and support
•   Automated scaling, governance, and compliance baked in

Platforms like Vercel and Netlify are excellent Front-end-as-a-Service” (FEaaS) providers for front-end applications and standard function execution. But a rendering host alone isn’t enough when you move into enterprise headless, where backend-for-frontend APIs, experience APIs, integration/data services, DevOps pipelines, security, observability, and governance all come into play.

Arc is built for this next level. Delivered in your Azure tenant, it provides complete platform operations: rendering, APIs, integrations, DevOps, monitoring, security, and compliance. With Arc, you don’t just get a hosting layer, you get the full operating model and end-to-end support required to scale from simple sites to complex, multi-channel digital experiences.

  • End-to-End Management: 24/7 monitoring, automated scaling, proactive resolution, and continuous security updates.
  • Enterprise DevOps: Deployment pipelines and monitoring across both the front end and CMS back end, always in sync.
  • Compliance by Design: Operating entirely within your Azure tenant ensures data residency, governance, and regulatory alignment.

In short, Arc ensures you’re not relying on a rendering host alone, but on a complete, enterprise-ready foundation with full platform operations and support. Already invested in an FEaaS solution and want to keep it? Let’s talk about how Arc provides the rest.

Hosting your headless front end in Azure keeps everything under your control — data residency, compliance, and alignment with enterprise policies. With Arc, you also get the full set of components that make headless work at scale, including storage, backend-for-frontend APIs, experience APIs, and integration APIs. Arc enhances this setup by combining Azure’s scalability and security with our expertise in infrastructure, DevOps, and DXP operations.
