This article shows how to deploy an Azure Kubernetes Service(AKS) cluster and Azure OpenAI Service via Terraform and how to deploy a Terraform chatbot that authenticates against Azure OpenAI using Azure AD workload identity and calls the Chat Completion API of a ChatGPT model.Azure VPN Gateway vs. ExpressRoute - Quick comparison
TL;DR. VPN Gateway provides secured connectivity between on-premises networks or clients to Azure services inside virtual networks. The data is encrypted through a private IPsec tunnel over the public internet. The configuration is easy. Price is a combination between he chosen VPN Gateway SKU and the outbound data transfer. It's usually used for small to medium scale production workloads for cloud services and virtual machines. ExpressRoute lets you extend your on-premises networks into the Microsoft clouds (Microsoft Azure and Microsoft 365) over a private dedicated connection with the help of a connectivity provider. The data is not encrypted, but does not go over the public Internet. Configuration is more complicated and involves the third party provider as well. The price is significantly higher than the VPN Gateway, and it is a combination of the Gateway type and the outbound data transfer. It's mostly used if really needed, for enterprise-class and mission critical workloads, Backup, Big Data, Azure as a DR site etc.End-to-end TLS with AKS, Azure Front Door, Azure Private Link Service, and NGINX Ingress Controller
