The management hub, accessed by the Manage tab in the Azure Data Factory UX, is a portal that hosts global management actions for your data factory. Here, you can manage your connections to data stores and external computes, and trigger settings.
Manage connections
Linked services
Linked services define the connection information for Azure Data Factory to connect to external data stores and compute environments. For more information, see linked services concepts. Linked service creation, editing, and deletion is done in the management hub.
Integration runtimes
An integration runtime is a compute infrastructure used by Azure Data Factory to provide data integration capabilities across different network environments. For more information, learn about integration runtime concepts. In the management hub, you can create, delete, and monitor your integration runtimes.
Manage authoring
Triggers
Triggers determine when a pipeline run should be kicked off. Currently triggers can be on a wall clock schedule, operate on a periodic interval, or depend on an event. For more information, learn about trigger execution. In the management hub, you can create, edit, delete, or view the current state of a trigger.
Global parameters
Global parameters are constants across a data factory that can be consumed by a pipeline in any expression. For more information, learn about global parameters.
