scalable and secured cloud Apps within Azure
We use Azure App Service for our full cloud-based website's new version. We use it to deploy both production and QA versions of the site, so that we don't have to manage website infrastructure, including on-premise web servers and security equipment. We use it alongside other Azure services, including storage, CDN, DB...
- scalability works very well
- integration with other Azure services
- highly secured
- the learning curve can be tough (just like other azure services)
- the UX/UI could be more intuitive (just like other azure services as well)
- monitoring can be hard to understand
- Microsoft's learning resources are hard to understand
- ON demand (and planned) scalability
- easy Azure devops integration
- easy configuration (for experimented azure dev) including Azure CDN linking

- deployment time reduction
- infrastructure management costs reduction
- site performance/availability improved
We didn't use other App services because we use Azure as our cloud provider and our first experience was with Azure App Service

Azure - More Money, But Better Service
I used it to host our organization website, which is written by PHP. As the website is our main product, it plays very important role in our company. We used Azure's app engine for several months, mostly for our testing purpose. But we never rolled out our production to Azure because of some issues.
- Auto scaling
- Good management dashboard
- Fast setups
- Learning curve
- Web Interface
- A mobile app
- Auto scaling
- One click deployments
- Several OS image options
- Reduced deployment time
- Better CI Pipeline
- Rich management dashboard
- Linode and DigitalOcean
Azure has many data center, their services are more reliable. Azure has way more features than both Linode and DigitalOcean. If someone wants a complete reliable service, he/she must go to Azure instead of Linode and DigitalOcean because even though azure charges more, it is worth the money you pay there.
We use Azure App Service to build full-fledged custom web-based software solutions for small and medium-sized businesses in a variety of markets. The Azure App Service coupled with .NET, Entity Framework, and other Azure features (storage, tables, etc.) make it easy to quickly build fully-functional apps, and we're able to do so so much quicker than when we were using the LAMP stack (Linux, Apache, MySQL, and PHP). Plus, we can scale resources with a click instead of needing to migrate to different servers and manually handle load balance, etc.
- Super quick & easy to deploy new apps in visual studio
- Easy scaling to help reduce costs during off-hours
- The powerful Azure ecosystem offers a lot of functionality that ties in well with Azure App Service
- Jumps between resource sizes can get expensive
- You may wind up putting a lot of eggs in one basket--not necessarily a con but something to keep in mind (most of your data will likely be managed and processed through Microsoft products/services if you fully commit to Azure App Service).
- Learning new technology. If you're moving from on-premises to Azure App Service (or any cloud solutions), you'll likely have to rethink how things are done to achieve the same end results (and/or resources may become expensive quickly).
- Azure App Service has allowed us to quickly deploy high-budget projects very quickly, netting us a healthy profit vs the cost to develop. (We make, on average, about 10x what it costs to get up and running per project thanks to how easy it is to implement a skeleton framework.)
- Costs are low to run the services thanks to the scaling functionality that comes with Azure App Service. We can utilize less resources during slow times and save hundreds of dollars per month vs costs of traditional servers.
