What is Peering?
Peering is the interconnection of separate networks so they can exchange traffic directly with each other, without intermediaries. This allows networks to offload traffic, reduce latency, and potentially save costs by avoiding transit fees. It's commonly used between Internet Service Providers (ISPs), content delivery networks (CDNs), and other large networks.

Azure ExpressRoute
Azure ExpressRoute provides a dedicated private network connection to Azure, offering an alternative to VNet peering for connecting on-premises infrastructure to Azure resources.
Transit Gateway
Transit Gateway provides a hub-and-spoke topology for connecting multiple VPCs, offering an alternative to traditional VPC peering for simplifying network management and connectivity in AWS.
Direct Connect
AWS Direct Connect provides a dedicated private network connection to AWS, offering an alternative to VPC peering for connecting on-premises infrastructure to AWS resources.
V
VPN
VPNs (Virtual Private Networks) can be used to create secure connections between networks, providing an alternative to peering, especially for connecting to on-premises environments.

Peering Complementary Technologies
Private Endpoints
Private Endpoints enhance security by allowing private network access to Azure services without exposing traffic to the public internet, working in conjunction with peering to further isolate and control network traffic.
NSG
Network Security Groups (NSGs) provide stateful filtering of network traffic, enhancing the security posture of peered networks by controlling ingress and egress traffic based on defined rules.
VNET
Virtual Networks (VNETs) are the foundational building blocks for private networks in Azure, and peering connects these networks together. Thus, VNETs are complementary.
