I’ve added two subnets since one of them will be delegated the the App Service later on and therefor cannot be used by anything else. I’ve created one with a ‘10.220.0.0/24’ address space and two subnets. The first resource we are going to create is a new Virtual Network.

I expect that you are familiar with Azure and therefor expect you to create the following resources on your own: Private Link supports access over global vNet peering, VPN and ExpressRoute. Resources in your virtual network can talk to this DB over the private IP, which means that you can restrict access to your SQL DB to only your Virtual network, making the ingress private. When you use private Link, your SQL DB is injected into your virtual network and gets a private IP address. Private Link is a relatively new service which is available on quite a lot of Azure services.

In this post I’ll show you how to securely access you db from an Azure Web Service. One of the options to do that, which recently went GA, is called Azure Private Link. It’s therefor best practice to add another layer of security.

And although you are probably very careful with that, it might just accidentally get public. It’s not very secure however since all an attacker then needs is your connections string. This allows your App Service for example to access your database. Whenever you create a new SQL Database on the Azure Cloud, one of the first things you probably do is set the ‘Allow Azure services and resources to access this server’-switch to ‘Yes’.
