Hi Azure Database for Maria DB is a Paas service so you will not see the infrastructure layer and you just have to provide parameters and deploy .

You talk about application gateway so i guess there is a web tier in you application .
The flow would be : Client request ====>Application Gateway ====>web tier ====> database tier

1 subnet for web tier + network security group
1 subnet for database tier + network security group or private endpoints to avoid exposing you database to the entire world
