From mi-announce at u.washington.edu Tue Mar 1 08:33:13 2022 From: mi-announce at u.washington.edu (Microsoft Infrastructure Service Announcements) Date: Wed Mar 20 13:41:44 2024 Subject: [mi-announce] hybrid Azure solutions Message-ID: I'm pleased to announce a set of new solutions which address needs that many customers have expressed over the past several years. Hybrid cloud scenarios involving NETID domain controllers and use of cloud resources have represented a challenge for many customers requiring both time and recurring expenses for each customer to invest to solve. These shared solutions help to greatly reduce those burdens. Note: Azure based cloud use is recommended for hybrid cloud scenarios involving NETID domain controllers. You can read about these new solutions at: NETID Domain in Azure | IT Connect (uw.edu). The solutions include: -Azure VNET peering to a UW-IT hub VNET -A UW-IT hub VNET with both NETID domain controllers and a DNS bridge solution -An Azure/UW DNS bridge solution which enables resolution of hosts and services on private networks in both UW and Azure managed DNS zones -A shared ExpressRoute which can be leveraged in combination with VNET peering (NOTE: large data transfer use cases are not appropriate) -Some recommendations about asymmetric routing issues we've seen with hybrid Azure scenarios If you have an existing ExpressRoute, you may be able to save money and shift to the shared ExpressRoute. But if not, we'd like you to consider reaching out to UW-IT networking to review your existing routing rules. It is highly likely that your ExpressRoute was setup with routing rules which can lead to routing issues, for example, a host on a public UW network which is going to a public Azure network preferring traversal of the ExpressRoute instead of using the public internet (and/or vice versa). I suspect the Embedded Architecture community of practice will present an opportunity to further explore the challenges and these solutions in the future. Happy to entertain questions/discussion in a similar thread on techsupport too-and of course help@uw.edu is a good way to get more focused attention.
