You can now enable availability zones for your
Flex Consumption apps during create or post-create. You can also choose the 512
MB instance memory size.
Availability zones are physically separate
groups of datacenters within each Azure region. When one zone fails, services
can fail over to one of the remaining zones. When availability zones are enabled,
instances are distributed across availability zones for increased reliability.
Availability zones preview is initially available
in the following regions:
- Australia East
- Canada Central
- Central India
- East Asia
- Germany West Central
- Italy North
- Norway East
- South Africa North
- Sweden Central
- West US 3
- UAE North
- UK South
Moreover,
Azure Functions now allows you to choose 512
MB in addition to 2048 MB and 4096 MB as the memory instance size for your Flex
Consumption apps. This enables you to further cost optimize
your apps that require less
resources,
