In this chapter, we learned the various hosting and deployment options for ASP.NET Core, right from the traditional approach to deploying published applications on IIS, to hosting them as standalone applications. The transition is really encouraging.
We learned that ASP.NET Core and Azure can be integrated so seamlessly by publishing using Azure App Services. There are plenty of low-cost Linux hosting options, and we explored those options as well. Truly, ASP.NET Core has emerged as a cross-platform technology from start to finish.
In the next chapter, we will consume these web APIs in modern frontends, such as JavaScript, JQuery, Angular, React, and Hybrid mobile apps.
