Description

Azure Container Apps support for rule-based routing is now generally available. This feature provides greater flexibility and composability to your Azure Container Apps by simplifying your architecture for microservice applications, A/B testing, blue-green deployments, and more.  

Rule-based routing allows you to direct incoming HTTP traffic to different apps within your Container Apps environment based on the requested host name or path. This includes support for custom domains. Instead of having to configure a separate reverse proxy, such as NGINX, you can now provide routing rules for your environment and incoming traffic will automatically be routed to the specified target apps.
