Azure Private Link enables secure and private connections from a virtual network to various services, including Azure's platform as a service (PaaS), those owned by customers, or services offered by Microsoft partners. By doing so, it streamlines the network setup and enhances security by preventing data from being exposed to the public internet. This private connectivity ensures that all traffic to the Azure services stays within the Microsoft network, avoiding any public internet interactions. Users can utilize Private Link to integrate Azure-delivered services into their private virtual networks by linking them to a private endpoint. Additionally, businesses can offer their own services within their customers' virtual networks in a secure manner. With all service traffic directed through the private endpoint, there is no requirement for gateways, NAT devices, ExpressRoute, VPN connections, or public IPs, thereby maintaining the integrity of the connection. Ultimately, Private Link guarantees that all data transfers occur securely over the Microsoft global network. This feature not only enhances security but also simplifies the management of network resources.
