I need some insight on how to connect a VM in a separate resource group to apps in another resource group that is fire-walled off with a public ip. Is it as simple as creating rules on the firewall to allow inbound traffic from the VM's public IP? or is there a better more secure way to accomplish this? the fire-walled off resource group houses are intranet web page and few databases the vms will need access to.

    There are two ways to achieve this. One is using the public Ip and facilitating the connection. The other way is to use the private link. This allows Azure services communicate each other using the azure backbone.
