Azure Route Server

Azure Private Link provides private connectivity from a virtual network to Azure platform as a service (PaaS), customer-owned, or Microsoft partner services. It simplifies the network architecture and secures the connection between endpoints in Azure by eliminating data exposure to the public internet. Private connectivity to services on Azure—traffic remains on the Microsoft network, with no public internet access. Use Private Link to bring services delivered on Azure into your private virtual network by mapping it to a private endpoint. Or privately deliver your own services in your customers’ virtual networks. All traffic to the service can be routed through the private endpoint, so no gateways, NAT devices, ExpressRoute or VPN connections, or public IP addresses are needed. Private Link keeps traffic on the Microsoft global network.

Azure Network Function Manager offers a consistent management experience for pre-validated mobile network functions to enable a private LTE/5G solution. The service also enables a seamless cloud-to-edge experience for Azure Marketplace network functions such as SD-WAN. Run on-premises, secure private 5G/LTE mobile networks that you can rapidly deploy from your choice of mobile packet core network function partner in the Azure portal. These networks provide ultra-low latency to enable real-time edge applications for use cases like augmented reality, virtual reality, and industrial robotics. Easily deploy and manage SD-WAN, VPN solutions at the edge from a rich ecosystem of partners. For a true hybrid experience, use Azure Marketplace to choose from a pre-validated list of marketplace network functions just like the network functions you use for Azure and Azure Virtual WAN, to help ensure proper operation with Azure Stack Edge.
