Overview

Do you remember the first blog, about the Microsoft Azure and how to run Eclipse Dirigible on it (How to Run Dirigible Anywhere - Microsoft Azure)? In that blog, there were a lot of steps, before we can get Eclipse Dirigible up and running on Azure. Now, it's time to simplify the steps and narrow them down to only few mouse clicks.

How is that possible? Thanks to Azure Quickstart Templates and more specifically to Azure App Service Samples - Tomcat Template.
