Deploy your Express app to Microsoft Azure
Step-by-step deployment help for Express apps on Microsoft Azure. We fix Express-specific deployment issues, configure Microsoft Azure, and get your app live. From $19.
Express issues we fix before deploying
Common Express problems that affect Microsoft Azure deployments.
No helmet middleware for security headers
Express apps without the helmet middleware are missing critical security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and HSTS, leaving the app vulnerable to common web attacks.
Missing input validation and sanitization
Request body, query params, and URL params used directly without validation. No express-validator, zod, or joi — enabling injection attacks and unexpected crashes.
Unstructured error handling
No global error-handling middleware. Errors either crash the process, leak stack traces to clients, or get silently swallowed with no logging.
CORS set to allow all origins
The cors() middleware called with no options, defaulting to allowing requests from any website — a security risk for APIs that handle user data.
Microsoft Azure deployment issues we check for
Common Microsoft Azure problems that break Express apps in production.
App Service plan on wrong pricing tier
AI tools provision Free or Basic tier App Service plans that lack autoscaling, custom domains, and SSL — causing issues when traffic grows beyond trivial levels.
CORS not configured on Azure Functions
Azure Functions require explicit CORS configuration in the portal or host.json. AI-generated frontends fail silently when API calls are blocked by missing CORS headers.
Managed Identity not used for service connections
AI-generated code embeds connection strings and secrets directly in environment variables instead of using Azure Managed Identity for secure, keyless authentication.
Deployment slots not configured for zero-downtime
Production deployments happen directly to the main slot, causing downtime during each deploy. Staging slots are available but never configured by AI tools.

Frequently asked questions
How do I deploy a Express app to Microsoft Azure?
We handle Express deployments to Microsoft Azure end to end. Start with our code audit ($19) to identify deployment blockers specific to your Express project, then we configure Microsoft Azure, fix issues, and get your app live in production.
What Express issues affect Microsoft Azure deployments?
Express projects commonly have no helmet middleware for security headers and missing input validation and sanitization. On Microsoft Azure, these combine with app service plan on wrong pricing tier and cors not configured on azure functions to cause deployment failures.
Can SpringCode deploy my Express project to Microsoft Azure?
Yes. We specialize in deploying Express applications to Microsoft Azure. We audit your codebase for Express-specific issues, configure Microsoft Azure correctly, and handle the full deployment so your app runs reliably in production.
What does Express deployment to Microsoft Azure cost?
Our code audit ($19) identifies all Microsoft Azure deployment blockers in your Express project. Full deployment assistance is scoped with a fixed quote after the audit — no hourly billing or surprise charges.
