Explanation
Azure API Management (APIM) acts as a gateway that exposes backend APIs to external consumers over the internet, making the API accessible to partners without requiring them to have direct network access to VM1. The APIM instance, being deployed within the same virtual network or with network connectivity to VM1, can reach the backend web service running on VM1 to retrieve real-time data. A VPN gateway is NOT required for partner access because APIM provides a public-facing HTTPS endpoint that partners can call directly over the internet - VPN would only be needed if partners required direct private network access to the VM itself.
