Many organizations have an existing on-premises infrastructure that they wish to integrate with Azure. This enables organizations to migrate existing applications to the cloud, and also to take advantage of the scalability, availability, security, and other enterprise features that Azure offers for new applications. The key part of this scenario is understanding how to establish a secure and robust network connection between your organization and Azure. The patterns & practices group has created a set of reference architectures to address these scenarios. Each reference architecture demonstrates one approach to creating hybrid networks with Azure, and includes: · Recommendations and best practices. · Considerations for availability, security, scalability, and manageability. · An Azure Resource Manager template that you can modify and deploy. This article gives a summary of each reference architecture, and helps you to decide which solution will best meet your needs. Using a virtual private network connection You can use Azure VPN Gateway to create a virtual private network (VPN) connection for sending network traffic between Azure virtual networks and on-premises locations. The network traffic flows between the on-premises network and an Azure Virtual Network (VNet) through an IPSec VPN tunnel. This architecture is suitable for hybrid applications where the traffic between on-premises hardware and the cloud is likely to be light, or it is beneficial to trade slightly extended latency for the flexibility and processing power of the cloud. Benefits: · Simple to configure. Considerations: · Requires an on-premises VPN device. · Although Microsoft guarantee 99.9% availability for each VPN Gateway, this SLA only covers the VPN gateway, and not your network connection to the gateway. · A VPN connection over Azure VPN Gateway currently supports a maximum of 200 Mbps bandwidth. You may need to partition your Azure virtual network across multiple VPN connections if you expect to exceed this throughput. ...read more
