Description

Azure Container Apps is an Azure service that allows you to deploy and manage containers without having to manage the underlying infrastructure. While using the Container Apps service, it's important to understand the importance of securing the communication of the application instance so that you are not exposing it to the internet without a proper communication mechanism.

With Private Endpoints, the traffic between Container Apps and other Azure services remains within the Azure network, eliminating the need to expose your application to the public internet. By combining Azure Container Apps, Private Endpoints, and Application Gateway, you can create a secure and scalable architecture for hosting your containerized applications. This not only protects your application and data but also provides you with greater control over network traffic and enhanced performance.

Learn how to secure the communication of an Azure Container Apps instance using a private endpoint and an Application Gateway in this hands-on lab.
