This article helps you understand the **Accelerated Connections** feature. When Accelerated Connections is enabled on the virtual network interface (vNIC) with Accelerated Networking, networking performance is improved. This high-performance feature is available on Network Virtual Appliances (NVAs) deployed from Azure Marketplace and offers competitive performance in Connections Per Second (CPS) optimization, along with improvements to handling large amounts of simultaneous connections. To access this feature during preview, use the [Preview sign-up form](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=2223706).
