Azure App Service Plan

The Make website runs in an Azure App Service Plan. An App Service plan defines a set of compute resources for a web app to run. These compute resources are analogous to the server farm in conventional web hosting.

The App Service Plan for Make is based on Standard S1 pricing tier, which is fine for most scenarios. You can scale up (or even scale down) if required. By default, the name of the App Service Plan is based on the naming convention:

Naming Convention
Format <DEPT[2|4]>-ASP-<SERVICE[3|6]>-<ENVIRONMENT[2|4]><REGION[2|3]>
Example RC-ASP-MAKE-DEV-WE
RC-ASP-SCRN-PRD-WE
RC-ASP-SCRN-DEMO-WE

The App Service Plan also has several Tags applied. These tags can be used for filtering when managing resources in the Azure Portal.
