Building a Global App With Azure PaaS
summary
Shows how to build a global ASP.NET Core application on Azure PaaS using Azure Traffic Manager to route users to regionally hosted Web Apps, Azure Redis Cache to cache frequently read data and reduce SQL round trips, and Azure App Service Authentication (Azure AD) for access control. Describes using ARM templates and VSTS release pipelines to deploy Web Apps, Redis and SQL in each region, and using deployment slots for zero‑downtime swaps, with an end‑to‑end demo of the setup.
