Question #: 10
Topic #: 5

You use Azure virtual machines to run a custom application that uses an Azure SQL Database instance on the back end.
The IT department at your company recently enabled forced tunneling.
Since the configuration change, developers have noticed degraded performance when they access the database from the Azure virtual machine.
You need to recommend a solution to minimize latency when accessing the database. The solution must minimize costs.
What should you include in the recommendation?

A. Virtual Network (VNET) service endpoints
B. Azure virtual machines that run Microsoft SQL Server servers
C. Azure SQL Database Managed Instance
D. Always On availability groups

You can see the effects of forced tunnelling (added default route 0.0.0.0/0 via on-Vnet gateway) and subsequent adding the Vnet service endpoint (more specific service-specific route) by viewing effective routes on the VM network interface in the Azure portal (i.e. not inside the VM). https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-network/manage-route-table#view-effective-routes

correct. The degrade performance could caused by forced-tunneling impacting service traffic. Enable Service endpoint can resolve this issue. Enable Service Endpoints with Azure SQL and Azure Storage with your ASE subnet. After this step is completed, you can then configure your VNet with forced tunneling. Keeping traffic on the Azure backbone network allows you to continue auditing and monitoring outbound Internet traffic from your virtual networks, through forced-tunneling, without impacting service traffic.
