Note: Send me an Email and I will give you access to my Web App Azure Quizz to test you knowledge and progress on Azure.
Azure Web App is a fully managed platform-as-a-service (PaaS) that enables developers to build and host web applications in the programming language of their choice without managing infrastructure. It supports a wide range of programming languages, including .NET, Java, PHP, Node.js, Python, and more.
Containerization Without VM Management: Azure Web App allows you to containerize your applications, which means you can package your application and its dependencies into a container. This container can then be deployed and run consistently across different environments. The best part is that you don’t have to worry about managing the underlying VM configuration, as Azure handles it for you.
And you can redeploy in another region in minutes.
Scalability: Azure Web App provides automatic scaling options, allowing your application to handle increased traffic and demand without manual intervention. You can scale up or down based on your application’s needs.
Continuous Deployment and Integration: With Azure Web App, you can set up continuous deployment and integration pipelines using tools like Azure DevOps or GitHub.
And you can Add an Identity Provider:
Azure Web App allows you to add an identity provider to your application, enabling seamless authentication and authorization for your users or users from another directory. You can integrate with popular identity providers such as Azure Entra ID, Google, Facebook, and more.
