Cross-Cloud Assurance: Fixed IPs, Zero Downtime

All QuotaGuard solutions are built on a decade of experience and a high-availability architecture designed to scale with your business.

Load Balanced & Cross-Cloud Performance and Reliability

Each subscription has a load balanced pair of static IP addresses for your Azure infrastructure. If one IP fails, traffic automatically routes through your second IP with health checks and automated failover, guaranteeing zero downtime and zero manual intervention.

Our global architecture uses a load-balanced pair of static IPs and ultra-low latency connections, ensuring your Azure application maintains fast, secure outbound connectivity with 99.98% Uptime since 2013 and no risk of failure.

Simplify Azure VNet Egress and Routing

Azure VNet outbound traffic typically requires complex VNet integration, NAT Gateway, or Azure Firewall rules to get a stable egress IP for API allow-listing.

QuotaGuard simplifies your VNet and Network Security Group (NSG) management by routing traffic through our fixed static IPs, establishing a known, single egress point that avoids the complexity and high data processing costs of internal Azure NAT services.

Direct Integration for Azure App Service and Functions

Azure App Service and Azure Functions are famous for their lack of a persistent, easily allow-listed outbound IP address.

We offer direct, simple integration for both, providing guaranteed, fixed static IPs that enable your serverless and web apps to securely connect to external third-party services, banks, and restricted databases.

FAQs

Common questions about Heroku Static IPs and QuotaGuard.

How is QuotaGuard installed and configured on my Azure app?

QuotaGuard is available directly on the Azure marketplace.

You can configure your Static IP addresses to your Azrure app in a single click, with no need to change the core of your application code.

You simply tweak your Azure connection config code to direct requests through our provided proxy server.

How does QuotaGuard integrate with Azure App Service and Functions?

Azure App Service and Functions often lack persistent outbound IPs, making it difficult to connect to secure third-party APIs.

QuotaGuard solves this by providing a standard HTTP/HTTPS proxy connection.

You simply configure your App Service or Function to route outbound traffic through our proxy URL, instantly giving your application a fixed, static IP identity without complex VNet integration.

Why should I use QuotaGuard instead of an Azure NAT Gateway?

While Azure NAT Gateway provides static outbound IPs, it can be expensive and complex to configure for every subnet.

QuotaGuard offers a simpler, cost-effective alternative that doesn't require managing creating NAT gateways or managing public IP prefixes.

We handle the high availability and load balancing for you, often at a fraction of the cost of running a dedicated NAT Gateway for simple API egress.

Does QuotaGuard run directly inside my Azure Subscription?

No, QuotaGuard is a cross-cloud solution. We operate our high-availability infrastructure on AWS, but we have optimized our routing to provide ultra-low latency connections to Azure data centers.

This architecture allows us to provide a fully managed, maintenance-free service that acts as a secure bridge between your Azure infrastructure and the external internet.

How does this help with Azure Network Security Groups (NSGs)?

QuotaGuard simplifies your security posture by giving you a single, known egress point. Instead of allowing wide ranges of dynamic Azure IPs in your destination firewalls or NSGs, you only need to allow-list your pair of QuotaGuard Static IPs.

This significantly reduces the complexity of your firewall rules and improves your overall security compliance.

Can I use QuotaGuard with Azure Logic Apps?

Yes. Any Azure service that supports HTTP proxy configuration can utilize QuotaGuard. This includes Azure Logic Apps, Container Instances, and standard VMs.

By routing traffic through our proxy, your Logic Apps can securely access IP-restricted databases or SFTP servers that would otherwise reject connections from shared Azure IP pools.

What is the difference between QuotaGuard Static and QuotaGuard Shield?

QuotaGuard Static is the Builder's Choice, focused on flexibility, speed, and securing standard API connections.

QuotaGuard Shield is the Buyer's Choice, offering end-to-end security with SSL Passthrough and an architecture designed specifically to meet strict HIPAA and PCI compliance requirements.

We go into greater detail at "Why is QuotaGuard Shield More Secure Than QuotaGuard Static?"

Will my static IP addresses change if I upgrade or downgrade my plan?

No.

Your Static IP Addresses will not change when you upgrade or downgrade your usage plan.

This is critical because we know you have already whitelisted them everywhere.

What happens if my Azure app exceeds its current traffic limits?

We operate with a "No Hard Stops" policy.

If your app exceeds your current usage limit, we will keep processing your requests and will reach out to you to discuss an upgrade.

Please read more about this policy at our Soft Policy documentation.

Is there a minimum commitment or cancellation fee?

No. There is no minimum commitment.

You can upgrade, downgrade, or cancel your account at any time with zero hassle, no long-term contracts, and no cancellation fees.

What kind of support can I expect when setting up my service?

You can expect Professional and Responsive Support from full-time QuotaGuard engineers, not AI bots, "side project" engineers, or outsourced support staff.

We pride ourselves on having real engineers debug connectivity issues with you, not chatbots reading scripts.

We offer one-on-one setup assistance, and our average response time is under 2 hours.

Still have questions?

We don’t outsource Support to non-engineers.

Over the past few days, Michael and Tim troubleshooted my QGTunnel connection.

Though the problem ended up being on my side, they were careful, understanding, and empathetic.

They responded within 30 minutes of each email I sent, while I expected at least a couple of hours.

Tim was even kind enough to go through my Heroku project to find potential bugs that could’ve caused my issue.

I’ll continue working with/recommending QuotaGuard to anyone using Heroku to connect to a DB with allow-listed IPs
