I want to connect mongodb-atlas with databricks, in the spark connector documentation they mentioned give ip address of databricks in the mongodb-atlas IP Whitelist. My question is how to get the IP address from databricks, Can someone help me with this?
As you can see in the images if you go to Azure account and go to data bricks, you can see Managed resource group, click on it and check for Public IP address, click on it and can see the Public IP address
Get a single NAT-like public IP or CIDR for all Azure Databricks clusters, which could be configured in a whitelist for any data source.
This is a high-level guide on how to establish connectivity from your Azure Databricks Workspace to your on-premises network. It is based on the hub-and-spoke topology shown in the following diagram, where traffic is routed via a transit virtual network (VNet) to the on-premises network.
This process requires your Azure Databricks workspace to be deployed in your own virtual network (also known as VNet injection).
Atlas only allows client connections to the cluster from entries in the project’s whitelist. Each entry is either a single IP address or a CIDR-notated range of addresses. For AWS clusters with one or more VPC Peering connections to the same AWS region, you can specify a Security Group associated with a peered VPC.
For Atlas clusters deployed on Google Cloud Platform (GCP) or Microsoft Azure, add the IP addresses of your GCP or Azure services to Atlas project IP whitelist to grant those services access to the cluster.
use the code snippet to get the IP of your databricks cluster
import urllib.request
with urllib.request.urlopen('https://api.ipify.org?format=json') as response:
html=response.read()

In my Azure Databricks workspace the default DNS IP is #168.63.129.16, this DNS doesn't resolve azure storage accounts which were created a year ago, after switching the 8.8.8.8 then the cluster sees these storage accounts.
Is there a command line that helps to get the list of default Azure Databricks DNS server IPs and is there is away to learn latest DNS refresh date !?
IP address 168.63.129.16 is a virtual public IP address that is used to facilitate a communication channel to Azure platform resources. Customers can define any address space for their private virtual network in Azure. Therefore, the Azure platform resources must be presented as a unique public IP address.

The overall goal of this question is to find out the proper way to connect a pre-existing azure kubernetes cluster to an azure virtual private network (or redeploy it in the virtual private network) so that it can now access the timescale postgres database (timescale.com) that has been placed in the VPC connected to the virtual network.
What I would like to do is take an existing production Kubernetes cluster and configure it to be able to see the timescaledb in the Virtual Private Cloud.
Is it possible to do this with another peering rule?
What I have done
Created a VPN in azure
Created a timescaledb database at timescaledb.com
Created the appropriate service principals, peering rules, and connected timescaledb to the vnet
Created a NEW kuberneted cluster in the virtual network
Tested the connection to the database (failed via internet, succeeded within vnet)
If I am setting up an Azure SQL Database in a vnet which Azure App Service and Azure Function will access. Is using both Subnet Delegation and Service Endpoints the right way to go? I didn't fully understand the documentation.
Regarding subnet delegation, I read this Microsoft article and this stackoverflow post, which stated:
When you delegate a subnet to an Azure service, you allow that service to establish some basic network configuration rules for that subnet, which help the Azure service operate their instances in a stable manner.
That sounds like a good thing but makes me wonder how it worked efficiently w/o subnet delegation.
As for Service Endpoints, I read this Microsoft article, which states:
Virtual Network (VNet) service endpoint provides secure and direct connectivity to Azure services over an optimized route over the Azure backbone network. Endpoints allow you to secure your critical Azure service resources to only your virtual networks. Service Endpoints enables private IP addresses in the VNet to reach the endpoint of an Azure service without needing a public IP address on the VNet.
Does that mean I cannot reach the Azure SQL Database from my home machine w/a firewall rule?
They both sound like they have the same benefits and I'm struggling to understand the difference. I suppose the larger question is should I enable both for the simple architecture outlined above.
In the Microsoft service endpoints documentation they also mention:
Microsoft recommends use of Azure Private Link for secure and private access to services hosted on Azure platform. For more information, see Azure Private Link.
For some reason that seems like an Azure to on-premise thing.
• You cannot use a ‘Subnet Delegation’ along with a ‘Private endpoint’ since that subnet is delegated for the said service, in your case, the Azure SQL Database. Through a subnet delegation, you can define the NSG association for it, as well as associate multiple delegated subnets to a common NSG. You can also define the IP Address space for the delegated subnet, the route table association with it, the custom DNS entry configuration in Azure DNS as well as define the minimum number of IP Addresses available for that delegated subnet. Similarly, with regards to service endpoint, these stated functions are not available.
• In service endpoint, you do not have control over the routing mechanism as well as the IP address related allotment, reservation, or configuration. Also, managing DNS entries for the resources managed through them and controlling them through a firewall or NAT gateway isn’t required unlike a subnet delegation because all these things are managed by Microsoft Azure’s backbone network on your behalf.
Thus, both have their own features and specifications for enabling you to configure according to your own requirements.
Does that mean I cannot reach the Azure SQL Database from my home machine w/a firewall rule?
Yes, you will have to create a firewall rule to allow the access from on-premises system to Azure SQL Server/Database and configure the service endpoint accordingly to allow the VPN client IP Addresses for accessing the same over public internet.
Also, through Azure private link, you won’t be able to connect from on-premises to Azure as it uses a private IP address and a private DNS zone entry related to it to connect to Azure resources in the same virtual network.
To know more regarding the configuration of Azure service access from on-premises network, kindly refer to the below given link: -
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-network/virtual-network-service-endpoints-overview#secure-azure-service-access-from-on-premises
Also, refer to the below snapshots regarding the configuration and selection of service endpoint for a particular subnet: -
I have a Private AKS cluster deployed in a VNET on Azure. Once I deployed it, a private endpoint and a private DNS zone were created by default therefore making the cluster accessible from VM's which are part of the same VNET. (I have a VM deployed in the same VNET as the AKS cluster and "kubectl" commands work in it.)
My requirement is that I want to perform the "kubectl" commands from my local machine (connected to my home network) and also connected to the VPN which connects to the VNET.
My machine can talk to resources within the VNET but cannot seem to resolve the FQDN of the private cluster.
I read somewhere that having a DNS forwarder setup in the same VNET can help resolve the DNS queries made from the local machine which can then be resolved by Azure DNS. Is this the way to go about this? Or is there a better way to solve this problem?
It would really help if someone could give me an action plan to follow to solve this problem.
The better way to perform the "kubectl" commands from your local machine to your private AKS cluster is to use AKS Run Command (Preview). This feature allows you to remotely invoke commands in an AKS cluster through the AKS API. This feature provides an API that allows you to, for example, execute just-in-time commands from a remote laptop for a private cluster. Before using it, you need to enable the RunCommandPreview feature flag on your subscription and install aks-preview extension locally. However, there is a limitation that AKS-RunCommand does not work on clusters with AKS managed AAD and Private link enabled.
In this case, If you want to resolve the FQDN of the private cluster from your on-premise network, you could select to use either the hosts file locally(used for testing) or use your DNS forwarder to override the DNS resolution for a private link resource like this.
The DNS forwarder will be responsible for all the DNS queries via a server-level forwarder to the Azure-provided DNS 168.63.129.16.You can provision IaaS Windows VM with DNS role or Linux VM with bind configured as a DNS forwarder. This template shows how to create a DNS server that forwards queries to Azure's internal DNS servers for Linux VM. Refer to this for DNS forwarder on Windows VM.
If there is an internal DNS server in your on-premise network. The on-premises DNS solution needs to forward DNS traffic to Azure DNS via a conditional forwarder for your public DNS zones(e.g. {region}.azmk8s.io). The conditional forwarder references the DNS forwarder deployed in Azure. You could read this blog about DNS configuration sections for more details.
I have hosted my SQL on Azure SQL.
From my AKS, each of the pods, I found out it is not able to connect to Azure SQL.
DB Connection:
Data Source=tcp:dbname.database.windows.net,1433;Initial Catalog=dbname;User Id={account};Password={password}
In Azure Portal > I have enable this below
I double checked the connection string and is able to connect from my local machine, but inside the kubenetes pod, I try to perform telnet to the server it responds
Connection closed by foreign host.
May I know what going wrong on this.
Azure provides two options for pods running on an AKS worker nodes to access a MySQL or PostgreSQL DB instance:
Create a firewall rule on the Azure DB Server with a range of IP addresses that encompasses all IPs of the AKS Cluster nodes (this can be a very large range if using node auto-scaling).
Create a VNet Rule on the Azure DB Server that allows access from the subnet the AKS nodes are in. This is used in conjunction with the Microsoft.Sql VNet Service Endpoint enabled on the cluster subnet.
VNet Rules are recommended and preferable in this situation for several reasons. Nodes are often configured with dynamic IP addresses that can change when a node is restarted resulting in broken firewall rules that reference specific IPs. Nodes can be added to a cluster which would require updating the firewall rule to add additional IPs. VNet Rules avoid these issues by granting access to an entire subnet of AKS nodes.
Manual steps
Configuring a secure networking environment for AKS and Azure DB requires the following:
AKS cluster setup
ResourceGroup: a logical grouping a resources required for all resources.
VNet: creates a virtual network for the AKS cluster nodes.
Subnet has a range of private IPs for AKS cluster nodes
Create an AKS cluster using the above resources.
Configure managed service access
VNet Service Endpoint: update the cluster subnet above with a service endpoint for Microsoft.Sql to enable connectivity for new Azure DB service resource.
Provision managed services with private IPs on the cluster’s network
Provision managed Azure DB service instances: PostgreSQL, MySQL.
VNet Rule for each managed service instance to allow traffic from all nodes in the cluster subnet to a given Azure DB service instance (PostgreSQL, MySQL).
I have found the issue, basically the Issue is on the AKS getting the wrong configuration, For the Identity, It doesn't read the proper appsettings.json, which it should be point to /secrets/*.json
AddEntityFrameworkStores()
I change the code to retrieve the information from the correct secret, the apps is work now.
Sadhus answer is correct and secure. But first you can quickly check by enabling the traffic as follows.
First select your server from your resource group.
Now in your sql server enable "Allow Azure services and resources to access this serve"
