Azure Just Killed Free Internet Access 😳 | Private Subnets Explained (NAT Gateway Required!) – YouTube

🚨 Azure Networking just changed FOREVER… and most people don’t realise it yet.

Microsoft has officially removed default outbound internet access for new deployments — meaning your Azure VMs and workloads will NOT reach the internet unless you design for it.

In this video, I break down:✅ What Azure changed (Private by Default networking)✅ Why your next deployment might FAIL✅ The security risks of implicit outbound access✅ How to fix it with NAT Gateway or Azure Firewall✅ What this means for Cloud Architects, DevOps & Engineers

💡 This is a massive shift toward Zero Trust networking in Azure, but it also introduces new complexity (and cost).

🎯 Who should watch this?
Azure Engineers
Cloud Architects
DevOps Professionals
Anyone deploying Azure IaaS, AVD, or workloads

⚡ Key takeaway:If you’re not explicitly designing egress in Azure… your workloads are going nowhere.
