Deploying a SignalR Web App to Azure App Service

SignalR doesn't add any particular complications to deploying an application to Azure versus deploying to an on-premises server. An application that uses SignalR can be hosted in Azure without any changes in configuration or other settings (though for WebSockets support, see Enabling WebSockets on Azure App Service below.) For this tutorial, you'll deploy the application created in the Getting Started Tutorial to Azure.
