Vert.x 3 and Azure cloud platform tutorial

Vert.x 3.2.1 applications can quickly be deployed on Microsoft Azure. Deployment is independent of your build so it is all about configuration.

About Azure

Azure by design does not support multicast on the network virtualization level, however all virtual machines defined on the same group are deployed on the same network (by default), so TCP-IP discovery can be enabled and quickly setup to form a cluster.

This how you would deploy your app:

create a fat-jar with your app
create a cluster.xml with tcp-ip discovery
run your app with: cp folder_of_your_cluster_xml_file -cluster -cluster-host VM_PRIVATE_IP
