Azure App Service

Microsoft Azure App Service provides load balanced, auto-scaled web front-ends.   PHP is supported by Azure App Service, so bootstrapping the Hashtag Framework is simple.   Configuring other Azure Services, such as databases and file storage, is also simple.  

Web Apps, Mobile Apps, and API Apps could all use the Hashtag Framework through PHP.   The #members platform is an excellent Web App base.   The #workers platform is an excellent Mobile & API App base.  

Sample Web.Config for routing all requests to non-static resources to the Hashtag Framework:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<configuration>
	<system.webServer>
		<rewrite>
			<rules>
				<rule name="hashtag framework" stopProcessing="true">
					<match url="^.*" />
					<conditions>
						<add input="{REQUEST_URI}" pattern="^/main\.php" negate="true" />
						<add input="{REQUEST_URI}" pattern="^/favicon\.ico" negate="true" />
						<add input="{REQUEST_URI}" pattern="^/robots\.txt" negate="true" />
						<add input="{REQUEST_URI}" pattern="^/(images|js|css|fonts)/" negate="true" />
					</conditions>
					<action type="Rewrite" url="/main.php" appendQueryString="true" />
				</rule>
			</rules>
		</rewrite>
	</system.webServer>
</configuration>
