Azure SQL DB connection via On Premise Data Gateway and Azure Private Link

We are using the Azure Private Link Service to connect to an Azure SQL DB through a gateway, as our on premise developers won't be able to access the database i think we have two options:

 

1) Developers given access to VMs with PBI installed in Azure that are connected to the data store via private link.

 

2) We can access data stores via Private Link\ExpressRoute as if they were on premise with some configuration. 

 

Are these the only options?i've found some guides around point two, but nothing really clear.

 

Any advice\pointers to guides would be appreciated!

 

Thanks,

Dale.

I would suggest going with point 1.

The reason for this is that it will mean that the private link stays private.

Along with this it also means an easier configuration for the developers to access the data and work with the data.
