Summary
This was the last chapter describing Azure services and load balancing in particular. It should allow you to further explore the topic as traffic management in Azure is quite a broad subject and, depending on your needs, a different service may be the best fit.
In this chapter, we talked about the basic capabilities of Azure Application Gateway, integration with Azure web applications, and URL rewrite configuration. Compare those features with Azure Front Door, described in the previous chapter, to get a better understanding of the differences.
In the next chapter, we will cover tips and tricks useful when working with Azure. We will also describe automated deployments of infrastructure using an Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) approach with ARM templates and Azure Bicep.
