Your management team has asked you to lead the first cloud deployment in your company's history. There are new services - web applications, VMs, and a SQL database - that they would like to implement in Microsoft Azure.

During a meeting with management and the application vendor, you gain a better understanding of the requirements for this deployment. The application will have multiple front-end service to support high-availability. Your company has stressed that this must be a secure deployment since it is the company's first cloud installation. Finally, you must have a low-latency connection between your on-premises datacenter and Azure.

When considering these requirements, provide answers to the following:

• What Azure VNet services should you deploy to meet these requirements and why?
• What type of connection(s) would support your hybrid environment (i.e. on-premises and cloud)? Which would be the best option and why?
• How will you secure the environment in both Azure as well as the connections back to the on-premises environment?
