If you deploy an App Service in an availability zone-enabled configuration, an additional load balancer may not be necessary. Is that true ?

Question

If we deploy an App Service in an availability zone-enabled configuration, an additional load balancer may not be necessary. Is that true ?

This is for implantation HA for App service . Do we need to add load balancer like Application load balancer for HA?

Answer 1

Yes,you are correct. An additional load balancer is generally NOT necessary.

Based on best pratcises however, for App Service Plan configuration:

• Use Premium v3 or above SKU (supports zone redundancy)
• Enable zone redundancy during creation
• Deploy in a region that supports availability zones
