Maven: Deploy Java Apps to Azure with Tomcat on Linux

We are pleased to announce a new feature in the Maven Plugin for Azure App Service. The plugin provides seamless integration of Azure services into Maven projects.

With only one step, you can deploy your WAR file to Azure Web Apps on Linux with the built-in running stack of Java 8 and Tomcat 8.5 or 9.0. By leveraging Maven, the Azure App Service plugin is portable and can be integrated with your IDEs and CI/CD pipelines easily.
