What is Web Apps?
Web applications (web apps) are application programs that are stored on a remote server and delivered over the internet through a web browser interface. They are commonly used for a wide variety of purposes, including online banking, e-commerce, social media, and content management. Web apps differ from native apps, which are designed for a specific operating system (like iOS or Android) and are installed directly onto a device. Web apps are accessible on any device with a web browser and an internet connection.
What other technologies are related to Web Apps?
Web Apps Competitor Technologies
Function Apps
Function Apps offer similar functionality to Web Apps for hosting lightweight applications and APIs, particularly focusing on event-driven and serverless scenarios.
API Apps
API Apps, while now integrated into App Service, served a similar purpose to Web Apps for hosting and managing APIs. They competed in providing a platform for building and deploying web-based APIs.
Functions
Azure Functions provide a serverless compute service that can be used to build APIs and backend processes, competing with Web Apps in scenarios where serverless is preferred.

Mobile Apps
Mobile Apps, part of the Azure App Service, offers features specifically for building mobile backends. While Web Apps can also serve mobile backends, Mobile Apps provides specialized tools and services for this purpose.
Azure Service Fabric
Service Fabric is a distributed systems platform for building scalable and reliable microservices. It competes with Web Apps in scenarios where you need a highly scalable and resilient platform for hosting complex applications.
Azure AKS
AKS (Azure Kubernetes Service) is a managed Kubernetes service for deploying and managing containerized applications. While Web Apps can also host containerized applications, AKS provides a more comprehensive platform for container orchestration, and is a competitor for containerized workloads.
Virtual Machines
Virtual Machines provide a flexible compute environment where you have full control over the operating system. While Web Apps are easier to manage for many web applications, VMs offer more flexibility. They therefore are a competitor.

Web Apps Complementary Technologies
Web Jobs
WebJobs allow you to run background tasks within the context of an App Service Web App. They are a complementary technology for executing asynchronous or scheduled jobs alongside a web application.
Logic Apps
Logic Apps are a cloud-based platform for creating and running automated workflows and integrations. While not directly competing, they often complement Web Apps by handling backend processes or integrating with other services.
Service Bus
Service Bus provides reliable message queuing and pub/sub capabilities. It can be used with Web Apps to decouple components, enabling asynchronous communication and improving scalability.
