An alternative to ACI is app services. Microsoft Azure recently released a new feature so that we can deploy Docker images using app services. This kind of approach is useful when you want to keep the same environment for your development machine and production environment. In contrast to ACI, app services provides us with a managed way to run our containers. It comes with some out-of-the-box features, such as SSL encryption, monitoring, configuration management, remote debugging, and application scaling settings. On top of that, app services is strongly integrated with other Azure products. Therefore, it is possible to plug other services into catalog-srv easily. For example, we may choose to run our Azure SQL Database solution to set up a fully-managed SQL database for the catalog service. Azure SQL provides the broadest SQL Server engine compatibility...

Overview of this book
In recent times, web services have evolved to play a prominent role in web development. Applications are now designed to be compatible with any device and platform, and web services help us keep their logic and UI separate. Given its simplicity and effectiveness in creating web services, the RESTful approach has gained popularity, and this book will help you build RESTful web services using ASP.NET Core.
This REST book begins by introducing you to the basics of the REST philosophy, where you'll study the different stages of designing and implementing enterprise-grade RESTful web services. You'll also gain a thorough understanding of ASP.NET Core's middleware approach and learn how to customize it. The book will later guide you through improving API resilience, securing your service, and applying different design patterns and techniques to achieve a scalable web service. In addition to this, you'll learn advanced techniques for caching, monitoring, and logging, along with implementing unit and integration testing strategies. In later chapters, you will deploy your REST web services on Azure and document APIs using Swagger and external tools such as Postman.
By the end of this book, you will have learned how to design RESTful web services confidently using ASP.NET Core with a focus on code testability and maintainability.
