 Cloud networks are different from on-premises enterprise networks. In on-premises networks, routers and switches support NetFlow and other, equivalent protocols. You can use these devices to collect data about IP network traffic as it enters or exits a network interface. By analyzing traffic flow data, you can build an analysis of network traffic flow and volume.
 
-With Azure virtual networks, NSG flow logs collect data about the network. These logs provide information about ingress and egress IP traffic through an NSG that's associated with individual network interfaces, VMs, or subnets. Traffic analytics analyzes raw NSG flow logs and combines their data with intelligence about security, topology, and geography. By using this information, traffic analytics can provide you with insights into traffic flow in your environment.
