• Storage account is the primary requirement of the VM creation and the storage account name should be globally unique since the endpoint can publish to the internet.

Azure Networking

Address space and the subnet is an integral part of Azure.

In ARM we will be able to create Vnet to Vnet, Site to Site, point to site VPN.

Express route and the VPN connectivity are the two possible way to connect the Azure Infra apart from the Https traffic

Content Delivery Network(CDN) is helpful for the web apps to store the metadata of high memory files.
