Visual Studio/Azure

Visual Studio can be used to integrate many services with Azure. Here we present a brief overview of the possibilities.

App publishing
Apps can be published into Azure. This brings several advantages - for example - web applications can easily be debugged. . The Azure web page says that "App Service Web Apps is a platform that is optimized for hosting websites and web applications. This platform-as-a-service (PaaS) offering lets you focus on your business logic while Azure takes care of the infrastructure to run and scale your apps."

Azure functions
"Azure Functions lets you execute your code in a serverless environment without having to first create a VM or publish a web application."

Azure App Services
The Visual Studio website (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/azure/?view=vs-2019) contains multiple resources on integrating Azure with Visual Studio, including using Azure App Services amongst others.
