Azure cloud networking

We discussed AWS VPC and GCP VPC previously. They are very similar except that an AWS VPC is regional and a GCP VPC is global (with regional subnets). Azure offers a similar cloud networking service called Azure Virtual Network (vNet), and it is regional. Like VPC peering in AWS and GCP, Azure vNets can be peered across different regions and different accounts. We know that AWS VPC peering can be initialized from one VPC and accepted by the other, and GCP VPC peering is implemented by creating peering from VPC1 to VPC2, and then from VPC2 to VPC1. In Azure, vNet peering is done similarly, and vNet peering is also non-transitive.

Like AWS provides SGs and NACLs to protect EC2’s and VPC/subnets, Azure offers NSGs and Azure Firewall to protect cloud network resources. NSGs provide basic network traffic filtering capabilities at the subnet and network interface level, whereas Azure Firewall offers more advanced traffic control at the network and application...
