Public Preview: Advanced Container Networking Services: Enhancing security and observability in AKS

Advanced Container Networking Service offers advanced security feature, FQDN filtering. FQDN filtering allows you to define granular network policies based on domain names rather than IP addresses. This simplifies policy management, reduces administrative overhead, and ensures consistent policy enforcement across the network. By restricting access to specific domains, FQDN filtering helps prevent unauthorized access and mitigate security risks.

To complement FQDN filtering, the HA DNS proxy ensures uninterrupted DNS resolution. This redundancy enhances the overall reliability and availability of your containerized applications, minimizing downtime and disruptions.
