Public Preview: Enhanced Azure Functions experience in Azure Container Apps
We are introducing a new, streamlined method for running Azure Functions directly in Azure Container Apps. This integration allows you to leverage the full features and capabilities of Azure Container Apps while benefiting from the simplicity of auto-scaling provided by Azure Functions.
With the new native hosting model, you can deploy Azure Functions directly onto Azure Container Apps using the Microsoft.App resource provider by setting “kind=functionapp” property on the container app resource. You can deploy Azure Functions using ARM templates, Bicep, Azure CLI, and the Azure portal.
Get started today and explore the complete feature set of Azure Container Apps, including multi-revision management, easy authentication, metrics and alerting, health probes and many more.
