Episode 29 — Application Hosting Options in Azure

This episode examines how Azure provides flexible environments for hosting applications, from simple websites to complex enterprise systems. Learners explore Azure App Service, which enables developers to host web apps and APIs without managing servers, as well as container-based options like Azure Kubernetes Service for orchestrating microservices. Virtual machines remain available for applications requiring full system control, and the episode compares how each hosting choice aligns with different development and operational needs. These distinctions form a core part of the AZ-900 architecture domain, where understanding use cases is critical.The discussion extends to deployment strategies, including continuous integration and delivery pipelines supported by Azure DevOps and GitHub Actions. Learners discover how scaling, load balancing, and monitoring apply differently depending on the hosting model. The episode also touches on cost and performance factors, helping listeners understand how to choose the right environment based on technical requirements and business priorities. By the end, learners will be able to identify the most efficient hosting approach for a given scenario, a skill equally useful for the exam and real-world application design.
