Chapter 11: Deploying an Orleans Application to Azure App Service
In the previous chapter, we learned how to deploy an Orleans application to Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS). Azure App Service is a fully managed Platform as a Service (PaaS) offering; it is not a container orchestrator. It provides the tools and services required to run reliable and scalable web applications that run on Microsoft Azure. App Service does not require a great deal of expertise or experience with container orchestrators or operating containers such as AKS. It provides capabilities such as autoscaling, load balancing, and security. In this chapter, we will learn how to host an Orleans silo in Azure App Service.
We will cover the following topics in this chapter:
- Introduction to Azure App Service
- Creating the required Azure resources
- Configuring the application to run on App Service
- Deploying to Azure App Service
By the end of the chapter, you will have learned all the details...
