Template Description
BOSH CF Cross Region

Deploy to Azure
This template helps you setup the resources needed to deploy BOSH and Cloud Foundry across two regions on Azure.
Create VNet with two Subnets, local network, and gateway

Deploy to Azure
This template creates a VNet, 2 subnets, and a gateway
Create a DevTest environment with P2S VPN and IIS

Deploy to Azure
This template creates a simple DevTest environment with a Point-to-Site VPN and IIS on a Windows server which is a great way to get started.
Deploy a Hub and Spoke topology sandbox

Deploy to Azure
This template creates a basic hub-and-spoke topology setup. It creates a Hub VNet with subnets DMZ, Management, Shared and Gateway (optionally), with two Spoke VNets (development and production) containing a workload subnet each. It also deploys a Windows Jump-Host on the Management subnet of the HUB, and establishes VNet peerings between the Hub and the two spokes.
Deploy HBase geo replication

Deploy to Azure
This template allows you to configure an Azure environment for HBase replication across two different regions with VPN vnet-to-vnet connection.
Use Azure Firewall as a DNS Proxy in a Hub & Spoke topology

Deploy to Azure
This sample show how to deploy a hub-spoke topology in Azure using the Azure Firewall. The hub virtual network acts as a central point of connectivity to many spoke virtual networks that are connected to hub virtual network via virtual network peering.
Connect an ExpressRoute circuit to a VNET

Deploy to Azure
This template creates a VNET, an ExpresRoute Gateway and a connection to a provisioned and enabled ExpressRoute circuit with AzurePrivatePeering configured.

Deploy to Azure
This template allows you to deploy a site-to-site VPN between two VNets with VPN Gateways in configuration active-active with BGP. Each Azure VPN Gateway resolves the FQDN of the remote peers to determine the public IP of the remote VPN Gateway. Template runs as expected in Azure regions with availability zones.
Create a VNET to VNET connection across two regions

Deploy to Azure
This template allows you to connect two VNETs in different regions using Virtual Network Gateways
Create a BGP VNET to VNET connection

Deploy to Azure
This template allows you to connect two VNETs using Virtual Network Gateways and BGP
Create three vNets to demonstrate transitive BGP connections

Deploy to Azure
This template deploys three vNets connected using Virtual Network Gateways and BGP-enabled connections
Create SQL MI with point-to-site connection configured

Deploy to Azure
Deploy Azure Sql Database Managed Instance (SQL MI) and Virtual network gateway configured for point-to-site connection inside the new virtual network.
App Service Environment with Azure SQL backend

Deploy to Azure
This template creates an App Service Environment with an Azure SQL backend along with private endpoints along with associated resources typically used in an private/isolated environment.

Quickstart templates

The following quickstart templates deploy this resource type.

Template Description
BOSH CF Cross Region

Deploy to Azure
This template helps you setup the resources needed to deploy BOSH and Cloud Foundry across two regions on Azure.
Create VNet with two Subnets, local network, and gateway

Deploy to Azure
This template creates a VNet, 2 subnets, and a gateway
Create a DevTest environment with P2S VPN and IIS

Deploy to Azure
This template creates a simple DevTest environment with a Point-to-Site VPN and IIS on a Windows server which is a great way to get started.
Deploy a Hub and Spoke topology sandbox

Deploy to Azure
This template creates a basic hub-and-spoke topology setup. It creates a Hub VNet with subnets DMZ, Management, Shared and Gateway (optionally), with two Spoke VNets (development and production) containing a workload subnet each. It also deploys a Windows Jump-Host on the Management subnet of the HUB, and establishes VNet peerings between the Hub and the two spokes.
Deploy HBase geo replication

Deploy to Azure
This template allows you to configure an Azure environment for HBase replication across two different regions with VPN vnet-to-vnet connection.
Use Azure Firewall as a DNS Proxy in a Hub & Spoke topology

Deploy to Azure
This sample show how to deploy a hub-spoke topology in Azure using the Azure Firewall. The hub virtual network acts as a central point of connectivity to many spoke virtual networks that are connected to hub virtual network via virtual network peering.
Connect an ExpressRoute circuit to a VNET

Deploy to Azure
This template creates a VNET, an ExpresRoute Gateway and a connection to a provisioned and enabled ExpressRoute circuit with AzurePrivatePeering configured.
