Custom domain on the IIS of an azure windows virtual machine

Question

Hi,
I need some information.
For a client of mine I would need to buy a custom domain ( with unlimited subdomains) and connect it to the iis of an azure windows virtual machine.
Example
http://domain.com responding to the iis root of the virtual machine
http://domain.com\subdomain that responds to an iis virtual directory.

Could you tell me how to proceed?

Thank you,
Claudio

@Claudio Veneroni Azure DNS does not currently support purchasing of domain names. To purchase domains, you should use a third-party domain name registrar (Example- GoDaddy), who will typically charge a small annual fee. Once you buy the Domain, you can choose to use Azure DNS to host your DNS domain and manage your DNS records. More details here- https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/dns/dns-delegate-domain-azure-dns.

Once you buy a domain, you can then use this domain to point it to your VMs Public IP or DNS name. More details given here- https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/dns/dns-web-sites-custom-domain

Hope this helps. Please let us know if you have any further questions/concerns. Thank you!
