Azure App Service - Azure takes care of authentication. You can focus on your business logic

#cloud #azure #appservice

Hi All!

Azure app service is one of the main service from azure to host a web application. It provides many features like scaling, network isolation etc.,

Authentication is one of the main area to focus for securing the application access to allow only the eligible users access the application.

Consider if an organization has an requirement for authentication, developer would create a new table for username and password and would maintain that table for user addition and removal earlier days. This is the one of the trickiest and daunting task which should handle carefully because when a user left from the project his/her account should also removed from application access here. So it will consume some additional hours for developers when they should focus on the core business logic.

Nowadays organization needs different type of authentication(s) like Active Directory, Github account and sometimes social media accounts like Facebook Azure offers this authentication mechanism for us without additional code. so that developers can focus on core logic development.

Azure offers below authentication(s), from which any one can be incorporate into your web application.

  • Microsoft
  • Apple
  • Facebook
  • Github
  • Google
  • Twitter
  • OpenID
