Standby Pools for Azure Container Instances is now in public
preview.
Standby Pools for Azure Container Instances enable customers
to create a pool of pre-provisioned container groups that can be used to scale
out in response to incoming traffic. The container groups in the pool are fully
provisioned, initialized, and ready to receive work at any given notice.
Standby Pools for Azure Container Instances utilize a
container group profile to determine how instances within the pool should be
configured. Additionally, when requesting a container group from the pool,
customers can use config maps to apply updated parameters to the container
groups without incurring a restart.
