Running FRE inside Azure Services

Deploy and run ABBYY FineReader Engine 12 for Windows in Azure App Service or Azure Cloud Service, with at least 1 GB of space in the App Service Plan for the FRE files.

This section provides the instructions on deploying and running ABBYY FineReader Engine 12 for Windows in Azure Services: Azure App Service and Azure Cloud Service. The following scenarios considering specifics of each service are prepared:

1. Azure App Service scenario using as an example a pair of WebJob projects.
2. Azure Cloud Service scenario using as an example a Worker role project.

For both services, you need almost the same toolset to develop your application. You will also need an App Service Plan with at least 1 GB of space to upload and store the archive with the ABBYY FineReader Engine files.
