A solid, quick conceptual overview. Good for interview prep or as a primer before tackling a real project, but you'll need to go elsewhere for practical skills.

Pros
Clear explanation of a core Azure security concept.
Good diagrams illustrating traffic flow.
Recently updated content.
Cons
No hands-on sandbox; it's a pure reading exercise.
Knowledge check questions are very basic.
Skips over the pricing and performance implications of Private Link.
That Defender for Cloud screenshot recommending to 'secure PaaS services with private endpoints' is basically the whole module. Everything else just unpacks that one alert. It’s a good one, though. The diagrams showing traffic flow through a private endpoint versus the public internet were much clearer than the official docs I'd been wrestling with.
But there’s no lab. You don't actually configure anything in a sandbox. It’s all reading and looking at screenshots of the portal. The knowledge check at the end was mostly just repeating definitions from the text. I finished it in about 35 minutes, and it did help the concept of Private Link 'click' for me. I just wish there was a follow-up lab to actually build the thing.
