Overview of this book

This Learning Path helps you understand microservices architecture and leverage various services of Microsoft Azure Service Fabric to build, deploy, and maintain highly scalable enterprise-grade applications. You will learn to select an appropriate Azure backend structure for your solutions and work with its toolkit and managed apps to share your solutions with its service catalog. As you progress through the Learning Path, you will study Azure Cloud Services, Azure-managed Kubernetes, and Azure Container Services deployment techniques. To apply all that you’ve understood, you will build an end-to-end Azure system in scalable, decoupled tiers for an industrial bakery with three business domains. Toward the end of this Learning Path, you will build another scalable architecture using Azure Service Bus topics to send orders between decoupled business domains with scalable worker roles processing these orders. By the end of this Learning Path, you will be comfortable in using development, deployment, and maintenance processes to build robust cloud solutions on Azure. This Learning Path includes content from the following Packt products: • Learn Microsoft Azure by Mohamed Wali • Implementing Azure Solutions - Second Edition by Florian Klaffenbach, Oliver Michalski, Markus Klein • Microservices with Azure by Namit Tanasseri and Rahul Rai

Azure App Service scalability


In this section, I'll be discussing the scalability options for Azure App Service. Using these scalability solutions will help you to have a highly available application.

There are two types of supported scalability:

  • Scaleup: Here, you increase the size of the resources on which the web app operates. For example, memory, CPU, and disk space.
  • Scaleout: Here, you increase the number of instances on which the apps operate. For example, if you are facing a high load over the instance on which the web app operates, another one will be created to load balance with it.

Scaling up

When you notice that your application is consuming too many of the App Service plan's resources, you can scale the App Service plan up. This gives it more resources so that it can fulfill the application's needs.

When you scale up an App Service plan, you get more hardware resources, such as CPU, memory, and storage.

 

 

You will also get more supportability for features, such as the following:

  • Custom...
