Overview
Quickly and easily build real-time communications into your web application
With Azure SignalR Service, adding real-time communications to your web application is as simple as provisioning a service—no need to be a real-time communications guru!
- You don't have to provision and maintain servers just because you need real-time features in your solution. SignalR Service is fully managed which makes it easy to add real-time communication functionality to your application. No more worrying about hosting, scalability, or load balancing – it's all handled automatically.
- Benefit from everything Azure has to offer! Easily integrate with services such as Azure Functions, Azure App Service, Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure Active Directory), Azure Storage, Azure Analytics, Power BI, IoT, AI Services, Machine Learning, and more.
- Use the SignalR Service Premium Tier to leverage enterprise capabilities such as auto-scaling, higher SLA, Azure Availability Zone support, and rate limiting. Send advanced metrics to Azure Monitor or integrate with other monitoring solutions.
