Remote Software Deployment on multiple Azure Linux and Windows VMs.

In this blog, we will discuss a real-time scenario of deploying software on multiple Linux and Windows Virtual machines simultaneously. Suppose you have 500 virtual machines both Windows and Linux and you want to push the software to these virtual machines. Obviously, it is not a workable solution to perform the manual installation on these 500 VMs. But there is good news that Azure provides a custom script extension for remote command execution. Let’s learn how to use it?

Step by Step :How to install Apache Web Server and deploy SSL (HTTPS) enabled site?

In this post, we will go thru step by step instructions for Apache Web server installation. After Apache Server Installation we will create an SSL certificate creation request to generate the certificates from Certificate Authority and then deploy the SSL certificates on Apache Web Server. We will also learn how to modify browser settings to make the certificate works in case the site is accessed from outside the corporate intranet where Root certificates are not installed on the machine.
