Good evening,
I'm currently setting up a Linux Web App (Docker), which requires a redis database to function.
On my local setup, I have both, the app and redis (with persistent storage) running in docker containers linked to each other.
What would be the best way to achive this on Azure, considering securing the redis instance so only the app is able to access it?
Best,
max06.net

I'm answering myself, in case someone needs it.
I deployed the redis container into a container instance and assigned a private vnet to it.
Also I attached the App service to the private vnet. One restart later... it works!
