As we have covered the main topics, namely creating Azure Web Apps, configuring web application with programming language specific settings, deployment slots – development, QA, UAT, staging, and production, deployment credentials management for FTP, Azure Web Apps monitoring, configuring role-based access for secure access of Azure Web Apps, and scaling Azure Web Apps, let's now see how we can perform some other tasks to manage and maintain Azure Web Apps.
There are specific scenarios where we may need to connect to some web services available behind the firewall and installed on-premise.
To consider security, we need to whitelist IP addresses from the sources where the request is originating:
We can use OUTBOUND IP ADDRESSES
to whitelist behind the firewall, so applications hosted on Azure Web Apps can access the resources available on-premise.
