I am trying to run redmine in Microsoft Azure in Web App.I have created a web app (in Ruby Runtime Environment) and have installed the redmine stack in it (through SSH). But i am not able to run redmine through that web app. I know there is a one click solution for redmine. But it will create a virtual machine which is IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service).But i want to deploy redmine as PaaS (Platform as a Service) in azure. Can you help me in this?
I am new to Azure. I have never used azure. So don't mind if this is some silly question.
I have a client who also doesn't know much about deploying.
I have angular/node apps. He wants to host on Azure WITHOUT using a VM.
I am not sure about azure. So i don't know how to deploy without VM.
I know to deploy with RDP(Remote Desktop).
Can anyone help me with this. Is there a way to deploy angular & node app without VM?
Is there any specific documentation for it? Which services will i need in Azure?
Thanks in advance!
Except Azure VM, there are normally two ways to deploy Node.js app on Azure which include App Service - Web Apps and Web Apps for Containers, please see the links below to know these guides.
For deploying Node.js app on Azure Web Apps.
Create a Node.js web app in Azure
Tutorial: Build a Node.js and MongoDB web app in Azure
To deploy the app with a ZIP file, or via FTP, cloud sync, or deploy continuously, or from local Git, etc. You can see more at the left sidebar of these pages.
For deploying Node.js app on Azure Web App for Containers， it's a simple way to deploy the app on Azure as similiar as on local docker.
Create a Node.js web app in Azure App Service on Linux
Build a Node.js and MongoDB web app in Azure App Service on Linux
To deploy via FTP, cloud sync, or deploy continuously, or from local git, etc. Also, you can see more at the left sidebar of these pages.
Some important tools will help deploying easier.
Deploy via VSCode, you can refer to these offical documents for WebApp(App Services) or Container(Docker Images).
To deploy on WebApp not Container, Kudu is a common tool for debuging and deployment. Meanwhile, for Node.js app, we need to use iisnode to connect IIS as revese proxy for your app, and configure the web.config file via follow the kudu wiki document. The Kudu wiki is very useful and valuable for new to Azure.
There are more details for this topic which can not be listed one by one at here, but the above these are necessary. The offical guide for Javascript developers is helpful for new to Azure.
Jay Gong posted a great answer for hosting on Azure. However, you might want to ask your client if s/he means s/he wants a micro services architecture. For more information on micro services, check out this link.
The other viable option would be an App Service (which is an Azure service that manages deployment and abstracts a lot away, but there's a VM under the hood)? Without a VM for hosting, it would be rather difficult to do anything in the cloud on Azure - the only other option is local hosting, which would be without Azure. I would argue that it ruins the purpose of using cloud services, as it seems your client is confused.
As part of including SonarQube in our CI pipeline for code coverage , we created a SonarQube server endpoint pointing to SonarQube server hosted in Azure VM. But we are in the verge of removing our dependency on IaaS, so is there any other alternatives for hosting SonarQube server .
Has anyone tried the same or have similar experiences?
The VSTS Hosted agent isn’t including SonarQube server, so you can’t configure SonarQube in VSTS Hosted agent.
You can use sonarcloud or setup a sonarqube server on your server machine.
I am working on micro service development using Spring Cloud and Netflix Eureka. Now I want to deploy these microservices on Azure. I tried to follow this Link but I am not sure that it's a best way to deploy microservices on Azure cloud.
Please suggest me what is the best way to deploy these micro service on Azure Cloud?
Two options
You can use Spring-Boot and push it to the docker container, as docker recently launched the support for Azure cloud.
You can deploy through Pivotal Cloud Foundry on Microsoft Azure.
Now you can also deploy using Azure Spring Cloud.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/spring-cloud/spring-cloud-tutorial-prepare-app-deployment
You can still use Azure App Service, But it is better to use it for monolithic applications.
For micro-services architecture, you should go with Azure Spring-Cloud as it will manage everything for you.
I'm developing a Node.js App but I deploy this app in a Azure Virtual Machine (Ubuntu) manually. I want to deploy it from specific GitHub branch (Master) into Virtual Machine, can I use Appveyor?
You can use Appveyor CI which is available on the Azure Marketplace which is published by Appveyor.
