Azure App Service is an HTTP-based service for hosting web applications, REST APIs, and mobile back ends. Customers can develop applications using their favorite language, such as .NET, .NET Core, Java, Ruby, Node.js, PHP, or Python. Applications run and scale with ease on both Windows and Linux-based environments.
App Service adds the power and features of Microsoft Azure to the application, such as security, load balancing, autoscaling, and automated management. It also adds DevOps capabilities such as continuous deployment (from Azure DevOps, GitHub, Docker Hub, and other sources), package management, staging environments, custom domain, and TLS/SSL certificates. With App Service, customers pay only for the Azure compute resources used.
Using Azure Arc-enabled data services, IT administrators or DBAs first deploy a data controller to a workload cluster on AKS-HCI. To take advantage of the functionality of Azure Arc-enabled SQL Managed Instance and Azure Arc-enabled PostgreSQL Hyperscale on-premises, the data controller orchestrates and automates the provisioning, scaling, updating, monitoring, backup, high availability, and disaster recovery of the database instances.
This service provides the elasticity, instant provisioning, and always current feature set IT administrators, DBAs, and software developers require to solve their database management challenges. Seasoned DBAs can use their existing knowledge and toolsets to manage and maintain the instances and databases.
