Objective: Connecting Internet Workloads Using Vnet Peering and Assigning a Custom Role for Operating These Workloads

The Rand Enterprises Corporation is evaluating Azure as a deployment platform. To help the company with its evaluation, you need to create virtual networks in the region specified by Rand Enterprises Corporation. You have to create test virtual machines in two virtual networks, establish connectivity between the two networks via VNet peering, and ensure connectivity is established properly.

Objective: To create high available architecture by distributing incoming traffic among healthy service instances in cloud services or virtual machines in a load-balanced set with the help of a command-line interface

The Rand Enterprises Corporation wants to deploy a web application in a highly available environment so that only the healthy instances will be serving the traffic so end users will not be facing any downtime. They have decided to work on an Azure public load balancer to implement the functionality.

OSS Corporation is a globally distributed firm. They have their headquarters in the East US with another branch office in the WEST US. Currently, they are working on a project and decided that the application tier of this project will reside in one of its branch regions. For security reasons, OSS Corporation management is adamant on keeping their data tier in the headquarter region.
