Azure Private Link service is the reference to your own service that is powered by Azure Private Link. The service or resource that is operating behind Azure Load Balancer can be enabled for Private Link access. Consumers of your service can access the service privately from their own VNets. In this Quickstart, you'll learn how to create a private link service using the Azure portal.

An Azure Private Link service refers to your own service that is managed by Private Link. You can give Private Link access to the service or resource that operates behind Azure Load Balancer. Consumers of your service can access it privately from their own virtual networks. In this quickstart, you learn how to create a Private Link service by using the Azure portal.
