Microsoft is making its Azure App services available on Linux systems from yesterday. Azure App service is a fully-managed platform for building enterprise web and mobile applications.It enables developers to create cloud apps easily.

Earlier Microsoft launched the Azure App service on March 2015. The app service brings the Web App for containers. It also contains the container images in ASP.NET Core, Node.js, PHP and Ruby, along with Docker-formatted images supporting Java, Python and Go.

" Providing Linux support in Azure App Service is an important step towards our commitment to support a variety of OSS stacks on the platform," Microsoft noted in another blog post. " We started on this journey with an intention to support OSS workloads running natively on Linux VM inside Azure App Service."

Developers can be use their image to Docker Hub, Azure Container Registry or a separate private registry. The Web App for containers will deploy the app and the needed infrastructure. It also automates Linux OS patching and load balancing. This way the users are granted more control in SSH to their applications for remote access to administrative commands in Linux.
