Quickstart: Deploy your first web application to Azure Spring Apps

Note

The first 50 vCPU hours and 100 GB hours of memory are free each month. For more information, see Price Reduction - Azure Spring Apps does more, costs less! on the Apps on Azure Blog.

Note

Azure Spring Apps is the new name for the Azure Spring Cloud service. Although the service has a new name, you'll see the old name in some places for a while as we work to update assets such as screenshots, videos, and diagrams.

This quickstart shows how to deploy a Spring Boot web application to Azure Spring Apps. The sample project is a simple ToDo application to add tasks, mark when they're complete, and then delete them. The following screenshot shows the application:

This application is a typical three-layers web application with the following layers:

  • A frontend bounded React application.
  • A backend Spring web application that uses Spring Data JPA to access a relational database.
  • A relational database. For localhost, the application uses H2 Database Engine. For Azure Spring Apps, the application uses Azure Database for PostgreSQL. For more information about Azure Database for PostgreSQL, see Flexible Server documentation.

The following diagram shows the architecture of the system:

This article provides the following options for deploying to Azure Spring Apps:

  • The Azure portal option is the easiest and the fastest way to create resources and deploy applications with a single click. This option is suitable for Spring developers who want to quickly deploy applications to Azure cloud services.
  • The Azure portal + Maven plugin option provides a more conventional way to create resources and deploy applications step by step. This option is suitable for Spring developers using Azure cloud services for the first time.
  • The Azure Developer CLI option is a more efficient way to automatically create resources and deploy applications through simple commands. The Azure Developer CLI uses a template to provision the Azure resources needed and to deploy the application code. This option is suitable for Spring developers who are familiar with Azure cloud services.

1. Prerequisites

  • An Azure subscription. If you don't have a subscription, create a free account before you begin.
  • An Azure subscription. If you don't have a subscription, create a free account before you begin.

2. Prepare the Spring project

The Deploy to Azure button in the next section launches an Azure portal experience that downloads a JAR package from the ASA-Samples-Web-Application releases page on GitHub. No local preparation steps are needed.

3. Prepare the cloud environment

The main resources required to run this sample are an Azure Spring Apps instance and an Azure Database for PostgreSQL instance. This section provides the steps to create these resources.

This section uses a Deploy to Azure button to launch a deployment experience in the Azure portal. This experience uses an ARM template to create Azure resources.

3.1. Sign in to the Azure portal

Go to the Azure portal and enter your credentials to sign in to the portal. The default view is your service dashboard.

3.2. Create Azure resources

Use the following steps to create all the Azure resources that the app depends on:

  1. Select the following Deploy to Azure button to launch the deployment experience in the Azure portal:

    Button to deploy the Resource Manager template to Azure.

  2. Fill out the form on the Basics tab. Use the following table as a guide for completing the form:

    Setting Suggested value Description
    Subscription Your subscription name. The Azure subscription that you want to use for your server. If you have multiple subscriptions, choose the subscription in which you'd like to be billed for the resource.
    Resource group myresourcegroup A new resource group name or an existing one from your subscription.
    Region The region closest to your users. The region is used to create the resource group.
    Postgre SQL Admin Password N/A The password for the PostgreSQL Server administrator.
    Postgre SQL User Password N/A The password for the PostgreSQL application user, which is used in the application.

  3. Select Review and Create to review your selections. Then, select Create to deploy the app to Azure Spring Apps.

  4. On the toolbar, select the Notifications icon (a bell) to monitor the deployment process. After the deployment finishes, you can select Pin to dashboard, which creates a tile for this service on your Azure portal dashboard as a shortcut to the service's Overview page. Select Go to resource to open the service's Overview page.
