Great write up Steve! Now DAB and APIs don't seem so mysterious and scary anymore. Almost approachable even.
I've been avoiding APIs for a long time but now need to start expanding my options for data integrations and collection updates as we start working with Fabric and the migration of our analytics platform.

Can you give any advice on how to host DAB on premises?
We have a VM of Windows Server 2022 (standard) with IIS 10.0 and SQL Server 2022.
We can run the 'development' version of DAB on the above VM and SQL Server conn string but not sure how to deploy and host it on a live prod environment?
Many Thanks

I would likely try to host it as a container, so I can easily start the process and run it. It is an executable, so you could just run is as a process on a machine (windows startup, scheduled task, etc.), but a container is clean and easy, and makes it easy to start/stop or move to a new machine.
Most of the stuff from MS focuses on Azure, where they're hoping you deploy it, but I think a container on a VM is easiest.
