Exam scenario

The solutions to the exam scenarios can be found at the end of this book.

MegaCorp Inc. wants to start migrating several on-premises applications into Azure. They want a hybrid configuration whereby VMs in Azure can connect to services on-premises and vice versa.

Any connection into Azure must be resilient, private, and stable with guaranteed throughput.

All VMs in Azure must route any internet-bound traffic through a central firewall to have complete control.

Suggest a solution that achieves these requirements. You need to consider the best connectivity options, how DNS resolution will work, and what sort of firewalls and NSGs you may need.
