Its ability to consistently secure cloud infrastructure for on-premises, hybrid or edge cloud services has made Azure one of the top choices of organizations. In this article, you will explore the applications of Microsoft Azure for deploying web applications, best practices to deploy applications on Microsoft Azure, PaaS vs IaaS vs SaaS, and the benefits associated with it. In order to understand the deployment process in Microsoft Azure, let us have a look at the different cloud services offered by Microsoft Azure that includes PaaS, IaaS and SaaS first.<\/p>\n

PaaS vs IaaS vs SaaS<\/h3>\n

To put it in a nutshell, Platform as a Service (PaaS) is a type of cloud service that provides a platform (an execution environment) which enables clients to run and manage applications without handling the infrastructure. Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) is a technique of software delivery that is based on licensing software use on demand i.e.it allows any device with a web browser to access data. Infrastructure as a service (IaaS) provides virtual computer services that a provider offers its clients from its data centers.<\/p>\n

Why consider Microsoft Azure<\/a> for deploying web applications?<\/p>\n

In 2015, Amazon Web Services share of the worldwide market was 31%, followed by Microsoft Services at 9% and Google at 4%, which makes it amongst the leaders in private cloud computing [1]. Around 80% of the Fortune500 companies have their presence on Microsoft Cloud [10]. The cloud strategy of Microsoft integrated as Windows Azure Platform (WAP) is to construct a cloud platform in which the users could move their applications in a simple manner. It ensures that the managed resources are accessible to both cloud services and on-premises applications.[\/vc_column_text][divider line_type=”No Line”][image_with_animation image_url=”1652″ animation=”Fade In” hover_animation=”none” alignment=”center” border_radius=”none” box_shadow=”none” image_loading=”default” max_width=”100%” max_width_mobile=”default”][divider line_type=”No Line”][vc_column_text]Some of the reasons to apply Microsoft Azure for deployment of applications.<\/p>\n
