Tutorial: How to move existing Azure integration runtime to an Azure integration runtime in a managed virtual network

APPLIES TO: Azure Data Factory Azure Synapse Analytics

Managed virtual network provides a secure and manageable data integration solution. With managed virtual network, you can create the Azure integration runtime as part of a managed virtual network and use private endpoints to securely connect to supported data stores. Data traffic goes through Azure private links that provide secured connectivity to the data source. In addition, it prevents data exfiltration to the public internet. This tutorial provides steps to move existing Azure integration runtime to an Azure integration runtime in a managed virtual network.

Azure Data Factory

For Azure Data Factory, you can move existing Azure integration runtime directly by following steps:

  1. Enable managed virtual network on your Azure integration runtime. You can enable it on a new Azure integration time.

Azure Synapse Analytics

For Azure Synapse Analytics, Azure integration runtime can't be moved directly in existing workspace. You need to create a new workspace with a managed workspace virtual network. In new workspace, Azure integration runtime is in a managed virtual network and you can reference it in the linked service.
