Azure App Service

Azure PaaS for hosting web apps, REST APIs and mobile back ends on Windows or Linux with built-in scaling and deployment.

Definition

App Service runs code in languages such as .NET, Java, Node.js, Python and PHP, or custom containers, on an App Service plan. It provides autoscale, deployment slots, custom domains and TLS, authentication (Easy Auth), VNet integration and managed identities.

Example

A team deploys a Node.js API to App Service from GitHub Actions and scales it to five instances.

Exam tip

Scaling and features are determined by the App Service plan tier; multiple apps can share one plan.
