  • Very simple and easy development process
  • Azure provide the built-in security for the web apps
  • The application can handle the high traffics
  • The Azure is providing little less amount of data centers, so they can increase the data centers.
  • Customized development; Azure needs to provide some more options to customize
  • Some of the essential things about the viewers and logs must be provided. Currently I feel they are putting limit on monitoring.

  • Visual Studio makes it an easy to deploy an app.
  • The Azure CLI and the Azure Portal are the two most convenient ways to interact with the cloud.
  • There's no need to worry about server upkeep. We could simply increase our capacity by changing a few gateway settings.
  • Like Heroku's dynos, abstraction of computing resources.
  • The total size of the Azure Portal has a negative impact on the management of Azure App Service apps.
  • The cost of making large transitions in the size of a resource is high.

  • It has options to deploy using CI/CD.
  • It has great integration with Azure Devops
  • It has all the common runtimes, so we don't need to install softwares.
  • Some times our .NET API Service crashes and it is hard to find the root cause.
  • Quick Links to frequently used pages will help
  • PHP 8 is not supported yet.

  • 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).

  • Simple app deployment from Visual Studio.
  • Easy interfaces: Azure CLI and Azure Portal.
  • No server maintenance. We could scale easily by just modifying some settings in the portal.
  • Abstraction of computing resources like Heroku does with dynos.
  • Azure Portal overall is pretty bloated and that affects managing Azure App Service applications.
