Quickstart: Deploy your first web application to Azure Spring Apps
Grein
Note
The Basic, Standard, and Enterprise plans will be deprecated starting from mid-March, 2025, with a 3 year retirement period. We recommend transitioning to Azure Container Apps. For more information, see the Azure Spring Apps retirement announcement.
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 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.

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 CLI option uses a powerful command line tool to manage Azure resources. This option is suitable for Spring developers who are familiar with Azure cloud services.
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.
Although you use the Azure portal in later steps, you must use the Bash command line to prepare the project locally. Use the following steps to clone and run the app locally:
Use the following command to clone the sample project from GitHub:
Use the following command to build the sample project with Maven:
cd ASA-Samples-Web-Application
./mvnw clean package
Use the following command to run the sample application:
java -jar web/target/simple-todo-web.jar
Go to http://localhost:8080 in your browser to access the application.
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.
