Route traffic for high availability of applications - Azure CLI

This script creates a resource group, two app service plans, two web apps, a traffic manager profile, and two traffic manager endpoints. Traffic Manager directs traffic to the application in one region as the primary region, and to the secondary region when the application in the primary region is unavailable. Before executing the script, you must change the MyWebApp, MyWebAppL1 and MyWebAppL2 values to unique values across Azure. After running the script, you can access the app in the primary region with the URL mywebapp.trafficmanager.net.

To run this sample, install the latest version of the Azure CLI. To start, run az login to create a connection with Azure.

Samples for the Azure CLI are written for the bash shell. To run this sample in Windows PowerShell or Command Prompt, you may need to change elements of the script.

If you don't have an Azure subscription, create an Azure free account before you begin.

Clean up deployment

After the script sample has been run, the following command can be used to remove the resource group, App Service app, and all related resources.

az group delete --name myResourceGroup1 --yes
az group delete --name myResourceGroup2 --yes

Script explanation

This script uses the following commands to create a resource group, web app, traffic manager profile, and all related resources. Each command in the table links to command specific documentation.

Command Notes
az group create Creates a resource group in which all resources are stored.
az appservice plan create Creates an App Service plan. This is like a server farm for your Azure web app.
az webapp create Creates an Azure web app within the App Service plan.
az network traffic-manager profile create Creates an Azure Traffic Manager profile.
az network traffic-manager endpoint create Adds an endpoint to an Azure Traffic Manager Profile.
