I already wrote about "Diagnosing and troubleshooting configuration and application errors in Azure App Services" in October 2019. Today, I am seeing an update to the service and I wanted to bring this new experience to light - it comes with an improved UX, and I really like it. In my daily work, I deal with production workloads every day. I have built, designed and am operating distributed applications and systems, and some are hosted in Azure App Services. Sometimes we see performance degradation. In other cases we experience intermittent errors that we can't easily understand. Enter Azure App Service…

Recently I attempted to re-deploy and replicate some of the infrastructure I have running and deploy the same version of the source to a new Slot in an Azure App Service.

Installing the Azure Policy extensionThe extension is available on the Visual Studio Code marketplace, and can be found on the following URL: https:…
I recently had a few discussions about some heavily-loaded Blazor apps I've built. They are all running on .NET Core 3.1, but I am attempting to get them up to .NET 5 (Preview). In these discussions, it came up that it wasn't at the time of our dialogs, possible to publish to Azure App Services with success. However, it seems that it works now - but again, it is a preview. Expect changes, perhaps even breaking changes, and don't ship to production just yet - at least that's what I'd recommend. I have successfully upgraded two out of eight…
