I am doing a project in which I have to deploy a web browser in cloud with a editor.
I already had setup a private cloud ,now i want to deploy a editor and a web browser over the cloud.Well i am trying to provide a PAAS for users to develop programs.Is this is possible
please help..
It is possible but not easy. See http://www.browserstack.com for example.
Also there are browsers made to run on the server. See http://phantomjs.org.

I have a application which is hosted in IIS on window server and application URL is "www.hire.com/jobborad". Now i am going to add new feature(sub application) for example "Candidate Hub" so
I am planning to created separate code-base and host that application in Azure as Web App but i want to use the same parent domain of my original application. my sub application's URL will be a "www.hire.com/CandidateHub".
Is there any way that even if my application hosted in differently environment, I will be able to use same domain?If yes then could you please recommend me any tutorial, blog or any thing which help me to resolve my problem.
I search a lot on google but nothing find useful.
Thanks in-advance for help.
Note : Mentioned URLs are just for example. Those are not exist.
this is usually done with the URL Rewrite Module in IIS.
Don't be surprised that the docs are quite old. They are still valid for latest Win Server and IIS.
for external routing you also may need the ARR feature which should be downloaded via the Web Platform Installer.
I'm trying to use jsreports.net (following this answer) to generate a pdf in an aspnet core application. Locally it runs fine but when I push it to an azure web app the app fails on start up. Does anyone know if this scenario is possible?
I reproduce your problem and it seems that jsreport uses headless chrome to print pdf. Unfortunately Azure Web Apps running on windows are very restrictive and doesn't allow running headless chrome process. In the other words jsreport.Local won't be able to print pdf in Azure Web Apps running on windows.
Fortunately, Azure Web Apps running in docker with Linux host are using different sandboxing strategy and headless chrome works there. If this is an option for you, enable Linux docker support in your Azure Web App and add to your Dockerfile lines from the docker chapter. Additionally you need to explicitly specify jsreport internal port, because of collision in the environment variables.
For more details, you could refer to this article.
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.
i have a web app that has a seperate nodejs backend and angular frontend.
is it possible to make them both run on the same azure web service? or do i need a stand alone service for each?
my nodejs server is just a light API that feeds my angular app with some statistical data to render it. if it is possible what would be the way to do it?
since i am using typescript i know i need to push my nodejs using zipdeployment and i know i need to use visual studio to push my angular project to azure. but when i want to run both on the same service, how do i do it?

If you choose the Web App on Windows OS, IIS allows you to configure multiple virtual applications within a single website. For this approach, you could follow Deploying multiple virtual directories to a single Azure Website. Note: The multiple virtual applications would share the same application pool.
As kim mentioned, you pay for the App Service Plan, not for the Web App. You could also host nodejs backend and angular frontend in different web apps under the same app service plan.
For the deployment, you could leverage VS publish wizard or manually upload your files via KUDU or FTP. Moreover, you could also follow Deploy the app section about various approaches for deployment.
You can run multiple web sites in different web apps in Azure so that they are sharing the same Azure App Service.
You can think of the App Service as a virtual machine offering resources for your applications. How many web apps you can run simultaneously depends on the size of your plan, see this page for details.
This way you can deploy them separately, manually or automatically using e.g. VSTS.
How do you deploy a website in Windows Azure so that it can have outside access? I'm not that familiar with it and I have no idea where to start.
All the info I have is that I have a cloudapp.net website. I can access my remote desktop through .cloudapp.net. And I have an IIS Manager.
This all sounds stupid, but I need to start somewhere. And I need help. Thanks.
EDIT: More info. From my extensive search, I found that endpoints might do the trick. I want the website to be accessed through a port (sample.cloudapp.net:1010). I did some tinkering on it but I couldn't make it work.
If you already have a cloudapp.net website, it means that you have a cloud service for your website. You could take a simpler approach and set up a Web App instead, which would give you an azurewebsites.net domain. Either way, the full domain name will be a public URL for your website available at port 80.
If you prefer to stick with a cloud service, check out the official documentation:
https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/services/cloud-services/
If you opt for a simpler Web App (my recommendation for beginners), the following URL contains links to documentation and a short video to get started with Web Apps:
https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/services/app-service/web/
Web Apps can be deployed in multiple ways, including Visual Studio, FTP or Continous Integration directly from source control. If you need help with deploying the web app, I have a step by step guide and video tutorial:

Hope that helps! :)
