For deploying and migrating applications into Microsoft Azure’s cloud platform, there are four deployment types. Each Azure deployment has its strengths and flaws that rely on the service you set up. Some might demand more consideration than others but allow further control. Others combine services like operating systems or load balancing as more of a platform as a service. 

Azure App Service

It is possibly the most suitable choice for local web apps as it grants built-in traits like traffic managers and load balancing. You do not have to install or configure the antivirus or operating system; by this, your app can appropriately run and scale. Azure Deployments include easy authentication, allows continuous delivery, connecting to cloud resources comprising databases and apps, scale on-demand, and manage deployment slots to permit migration and testing of the production without downtime.

• Web Apps are developed for ASP.NET web applications  and build web servers to operate- Java, Node.js, NET, PHP, and other applications running under Linux and Windows. Mobile apps stand as a mobile application backend for attaching Software Development Kit for Android, Windows, and iOS; they also have a combination for push notification and offline data sync.
• Web Jobs are related to functions. They do not exist auto-scale, and they work inside a mobile or web application. They are triggered by a specific action or queue when they run.

Azure Service Fabric

The other prime platform as a service in Azure is Service Fabric, which Microsoft uses for their Azure SQL databases and the underlying PaaS for the App Services. When the central focus is on cloud-native microservices, any application can run in Service Fabric. It does not incorporate authentication or deployment slots as App Services does. Still, you can operate the Service Fabric on-premise or with another hosting provider as well as in the Azure cloud, making it an excellent fit for hybrid deployments.

Virtual Machines

Azure VMs are complete Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). Azure VMs are (IaaS) different from App Service and Service Fabric, which are PaaS. They do not incorporate antivirus protection, auto-scaling features, and load balancing. Maintaining the features of VMs, you obtain more authority over the server itself. It works as the equivalent of a physical server within Microsoft’s Azure pool. Azure VMs remain configured through server images covering the entire server like an operating system—installed application and configuration. You can download and operate on pictures and then upload them to the Azure cloud.

PaaS images stand quickly fitted. Azure VMs can take several minutes and hours to spin up and configure. VMs customized option is the most complex option to manage.

Azure Containers

The Azure grants a container service. An app stands easily migrated across the various platforms and services with the charm of containerization. Windows containers operate with Azure in virtual and on-premises environments like Amazon Web Services, VMware, etc. As per your environment, you may require combining and check these deployment models to obtain the most benefits from the Azure cloud.
