Public preview: Durable Task Scheduler for Azure Functions

Durable task scheduler is a new storage provider for the durable functions, a feature of Azure Functions. It is designed to address the challenges and gaps identified by our customers with existing bring-your-own storage options. Over the past few months, since the initial limited early access launch of the durable task scheduler, we’ve been working closely with our customers to understand their requirements and ensure they are fully supported in using durable task scheduler successfully. We’ve also strengthened the fundamentals by   

• Expanding regional availability  

• Finalizing APIs  

• Ensuring high reliability, scalability and built-in security  

• Adding support for all durable functions programming languages  

This is the preferred managed backend solution for customers who require high performance, enhanced monitoring of stateful orchestrations, or find managing bring-your-own storage accounts too cumbersome. It is the ideal choice for stateful functions (durable functions) in Azure Functions.
