Azure Web App - request timeout request

Question

I also have a MVC5 web application running on Azure. First of all, this is a website, but I also have a CRON job (run from an external source) that calls a URL (a GET Request) to do some kind of home maintenance. This asynchronous task can take up to and sometimes a default timeout of Azure for 230 seconds. Because of this, I regularly get 500 errors.

Now I read a little, and it looks like it's related to Azure load balancing settings. I also found some topics related to the ability to change this timeout in different contexts, but I wonder if anyone has experience in changing the Azure load balancing timeout in the context of a web application? Is this a simple process?

Answer 1

but I am wondering if anyone has experience in changing the Azure load balancing timeout in the context of a web application?

You can configure Azure load balancing options in virtual machines and cloud services. Therefore, if you want to do this, I suggest you deploy the web application to a virtual machine or transfer the web application to the cloud services. For more information, you can refer to the link .

If possible, you can try to optimize your query or execution code.
