Azure Networking
Azure Networking is a collection of cloud-based services and tools provided by Microsoft Azure for building, managing, and securing network infrastructure in the cloud. It enables connectivity between Azure resources, on-premises networks, and the internet through virtual networks, load balancers, VPN gateways, and other components. These services support scalable, reliable, and secure networking for applications deployed in Azure.
Developers should learn Azure Networking when building or migrating applications to Azure, as it is essential for configuring secure and efficient communication between cloud resources, such as virtual machines, containers, and databases. It is particularly useful for hybrid cloud scenarios, implementing network security policies, and optimizing performance with features like Azure Load Balancer or Azure Front Door. Mastery of Azure Networking ensures robust application deployment and compliance with organizational network requirements.
