Example: Deploying a Static Website to Azure Blob Storage
Static websites can be hosted directly from Azure Blob Storage. This is a cost-effective and highly scalable way to serve static content like HTML, CSS, and JavaScript files.
Steps:
- Create a Storage Account: Ensure you have an Azure Storage account. If not, create one via the Azure portal.
- Enable Static Website Hosting: In your storage account settings, navigate to "Static website" and enable it. Provide an index document name (e.g.,
index.html) and an error document path (e.g.,404.html). This will create a container named$web. - Upload Your Files: Upload your static website files (HTML, CSS, JS, images) to the
$webcontainer using Azure Storage Explorer or the Azure portal.
Code Snippet (Conceptual - HTML):
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
<title>My Azure Static Site</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css">
</head>
<body>
<h1>Welcome to my Azure Hosted Static Website!</h1>
<p>This content is served directly from Azure Blob Storage.</p>
<script src="script.js"></script>
</body>
</html>
After following these steps, your static website will be accessible via a public URL provided by Azure. For advanced configurations like custom domains and HTTPS, refer to the official Azure documentation.
