Containerization is a game-changer for software hosting, offering portability, scalability, and minimal code changes. In the Azure ecosystem, you have many options for running containers. Let’s explore them, considering ease of use, capabilities, and cost.

🌐 Azure App Service is a veteran in the Azure lineup. It’s a fully-managed environment for running a single app. With the ability to deploy a single Docker container to an App Service, it’s a simple choice for a single containerized app.(Multi-container is in preview.)
