Flex Consumption plan is a new Azure Functions
hosting plan that builds on the consumption pay per second serverless billing
model with automatic scale down to zero when not in use for cost efficiency., It
provides you with more flexibility and customizability without compromising on
existing capabilities. The Flex Consumption plan also allows you to enjoy
seamless integration with your virtual network at no extra cost, ensuring
secure and private communication, with no considerable impact to your app’s
scale out performance. Now, customers can build serverless
Functions-as-a-Service (FaaS) using Azure Functions for bust scale, higher
throughput, improved reliability, better performance, and additional security
on their own terms.
New capabilities include fast and large elastic
scale, instance size selection, private networking, longer running executions, and
concurrency control. Customers can run their serverless enterprise apps for
event driven scale with negligible cold-start latency using always ready
instances on Flex Consumption.
