A private endpoint is a network interface that uses a private IP address from your virtual network. This network interface connects you privately and securely to a service powered by Azure Private Link. By enabling a private endpoint, you're bringing the service into your virtual network. The service could be an Azure service such as: - Azure Storage - Azure Cosmos DB - Azure SQL Database - Your own service using a Private Link Service. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/private-link/private-endpoint-overview
