In Azure Front Door Standard/Premium, an endpoint is a logical grouping of one or more routes that are associated with domain names. Each endpoint is assigned a domain name by Front Door, and you can associate your own custom domains by using routes. ([View Highlight] (https://read.readwise.io/read/01h4fw1ntnh99pfvpg5rhn0xhr))

How many endpoints should I create?
A Front Door profile can contain multiple endpoints. However, in many situations you might only need a single endpoint.
When you're planning the endpoints to create, consider the following factors:
• If all of your domains use the same or similar route paths, it's probably best to combine them into a single endpoint.
• If you use different routes and route paths for each domain, consider using separate endpoints, such as by having an endpoint for each custom domain.
• If you need to enable or disable all of your domains together, consider using a single endpoint. An entire endpoint can be enabled or disabled together. ([View Highlight] (https://read.readwise.io/read/01h4fw21ceagnsjq0e9e05vrat))
