The next step in our cloud journey is Azure networking. This step will lay the foundation for our Azure infrastructure and will be used by both IaaS and PaaS in chapters to come. It's important to design and implement your Azure network with consideration for all Azure services that will be used in the future. This will save you a lot of headaches, and keep your cloud journey safe and without turbulence.
The areas that we'll cover in this chapter are the following:
- Azure VNet
- Address ranges
- Subntets
- IP address types and reservations
- DNS
- Network security groups (NSGs)
- Azure virtual machine networking
