Solutions and samples
You can access sample PostgreSQL applications on GitHub, allowing you to deploy our sample Day Planner app, using node.js or Ruby on Rails, on your own Azure subscription with a backend PostgreSQL database. The Day Planner app is a sample application that can be used to manage your day-to-day engagements. The app marks engagements, displays routes between them, and showcases the distance and time required to reach the next engagement.
We also support deploying Azure Web Apps with a MySQL database backend as a template on GitHub.
Developers can accomplish seamless connectivity for our PostgreSQL and MySQL services using native tools that they are used to. Developers can also continue to develop using Python, node.js, Java, PHP, or any programming language of their choice. We support development with your favorite open source frameworks such as Djnago and Flask, among others. The service will work seamlessly. If you have a sample application that you would like to host on our GitHub repo, or even have suggestions and feedback about our sample applications, please feel free to submit a pull request and become a contributor on our repo. We love working with our community to provide ready-to-go applications for the community at large.
