Azure Traffic Manager (ATM)

Azure Traffic Manager is a DNS-based traffic load balancer that enables you to distribute traffic optimally to services across global Azure regions while providing high availability and responsiveness.

The traffic manager service is used to direct client requests to the most appropriate service endpoint that is based on a traffic routing method and health of the endpoint.

The different traffic routing methods available for the Azure Traffic Manager below

  • Priority: Route traffic to another endpoint in case the primary falls.
  • Weighted: Route traffic to the different endpoints based on weight.
  • Performance: You want the end-users to use the "closest" endpoint in terms of the lowest network latency.
  • Geographic: Users would be directed to the endpoint based on their geographic location.
  • Subnet: This maps the set of end-users IP address ranges to a specific endpoint within a traffic manager profile.

Azure Landing Zone – Networking Overview

In this blog post, we will be going through the networking overview of the Azure Landing Zone. key design considerations and recommendations surrounding network typologies in Microsoft Azure. Design Element : Below are the design consideration for Azure networking and connectivity. Planning for IP Addressing Configure DNS Define an Azure Networking Topology Connectivity to Azure Connectivity to other cloud providers Planning for IP Addressing IP address planning is a vital first step when designing a network in Azure especially if you have a hybrid environment to avoid overlapping IP address space across on-premises environment and Azure. Design Considerations: Azure reserves 5 IP address with each subnet so factor in the address space when sizing the virtual networks. Some Azure service such as Application Gateway – WAF, Azure Firewall, Azure Bastion and VPN Gateway require dedicated subnets. You can delegate subnets to some Azure service that can be injected into the virtual network.
