Azure Front Door is a scalable and secure entry point for fast delivery of your global web applications. Front Door periodically sends a synthetic HTTP/HTTPS request to all your configured origins to determine health and proximity.

In this post, I will explain why this is important and how you can reduce egress costs using HEAD requests.

It can provide structure amongst the chaos of potentially hundreds (if not, thousands) of resources deployed across different regions and environments. A consistent naming standard is the first pillar of the Azure enterprise scaffold and a best practice for cloud applications.
