Azure Website Reserved IP

Question

I\'ve been trying to find an answer to this for a few days.

I want to host a new azure website in either the Basic tier or Standard tie

Answer 1

Azure now supports having static outbound IP address as well.

https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/app-service-app-service-environment-intro/

If we do not want to go for costlier App Service Environment setup, we can directly use the outbound IP addresses mentioned in the Azure portal in properties section, Azure assures that it remain 99.9% static. Nothing really changes until there is some changes data center wide. Moreover, the reserved Ip what we use in IaaS is also not 100% reserved for us and azure provides SLA of 99.9% here as well. So, In my opinion, instead of going for ASE and hosting IaaS and using reserved IP, we can just use outbound Ip provided by azure, since we get same reliability in both cases.
