Mahesh_Sundaram details how the Azure Monitor Private Link Scope (AMPLS) scale limits have been increased by 10x, enabling organizations to scale secure monitoring and resource management across large environments.

Azure Monitor Private Link Scope (AMPLS) Scale Limits Increased by 10x: GA Announcement

Introduction

Azure Monitor Private Link Scope (AMPLS) now supports dramatically increased scale limits, allowing organizations to securely connect more Azure Monitor resources via Private Link for network isolation, compliance, and Zero Trust alignment. This enhancement comes with major usability improvements and broader support for complex, large-scale environments.

What is AMPLS?

AMPLS allows you to connect Azure Monitor resources to your virtual network using private endpoints. Monitoring data remains accessible only within authorized private networks, protecting sensitive information and ensuring all monitoring telemetry flows through the secure Azure backbone.

What’s New in AMPLS at GA

  • 10x Scale Increase: Connect up to 3,000 Log Analytics workspaces and 10,000 Application Insights components per AMPLS.
  • 20x Resource Connectivity: Each Azure Monitor resource can now connect to 100 AMPLS resources.
  • Enhanced UI: The redesigned interface provides smooth navigation of 13,000+ resources with pagination.
  • Private Endpoint Support: Each AMPLS object supports 10 private endpoints, ensuring secure telemetry flows and network isolation.

Why This Update Matters

Enterprise customers, including leading telecom and financial services providers, struggled to scale monitoring within previous limits. Growing demand for private links made it difficult to integrate essential workloads without sacrificing security or compliance. This release solves those challenges, delivering centralized, scalable monitoring while upholding robust security and performance.

Customer Use Cases

Banking & Financial Services Customer

Challenge: Complex workflows requiring scalable, compliant, and secure monitoring for business-critical apps.

Solution: Adoption of AMPLS and increased scale limits to enhance security for financial models, streamline telemetry, and meet compliance needs.

Business Impact:

  • Security posture improved with Zero Trust alignment.
  • Greater operational efficiency in monitoring/reporting.
  • Future-ready architecture for performance and compliance.

Telecom Service Provider

Architecture: Highly micro-segmented workspaces managed by DevOps teams for security and isolation.

Challenge: Previous scale limits restricted centralized monitoring and complicated large-scale telemetry flows.

Solution: Expanded use of AMPLS with new limits enables all monitoring to route securely via Microsoft backbone, simplifies resource configuration, and fortifies data protection.

Outcomes:

  • Scale: Supports 3,000 Log Analytics workspaces and 10,000 Application Insights per AMPLS.
  • Efficiency: Azure Monitor resources connect to up to 100 AMPLS resources.
  • Security: Private endpoint connectivity reduces exfiltration risks and simplifies DevOps management.

Key Features and Benefits Summary

  • Massive scale for Log Analytics and Application Insights
  • Improved UX/UI for managing thousands of resources
  • Enhanced network security via private endpoint support and isolated telemetry
  • Support for broader resource types, including DCE, LA WS, and AI components
