I'm planning to make my website project live, it runs on asp.net and sql server. I'm doing research about azure as it seems to be the one who natively works for it. Can you give me some advice on this? here are some thoughts that's running on my head.
1. Host my own server and buy a domain name(I dont know if this is possible)
2. Use azure to buy a web host and a sql database (this seems to be possible) <-not sure if this already includes the domain name
oh yeah,,... I dont fully understand the concept of vps YET other than that I'm renting a VM from another company. But I'll look into that too. Thanks for the info.
whatever you decide to do, automate the deployment. You can do that with azure -- actually azure can take a lot of the complexity out of it -- but a VPS will let you get your 'hands dirty' directly.
Not a fan of the microsoft ecosystem, but I believe you can deploy directly from visual studio in an automated way and visual studio is a great product.
