Struggling with complex deployment processes for your serverless applications? Visual Studio 2022 introduces a seamless solution with the new Azure Functions Flex Consumption hosting plan, now generally available.
Imagine a world where deploying your serverless applications to a hosting plan that supports fast scaling and VNet is as simple as a right-click. With the Azure Functions Flex Consumption hosting plan, this is now a reality. This feature allows you to right-click publish to Flex directly from Visual Studio 2022, streamlining your workflow and saving valuable time.
One of the standout features of the Flex Consumption plan is its Virtual Network integration at no extra cost. This ensures that your apps can communicate securely with other resources in your Azure infrastructure without incurring additional expenses.
Fast and predictable scaling
Flex Consumption offers fast and predictable scaling with instance size choice and per instance concurrency control. This means you can tailor the performance of your applications to meet the specific demands of your users, ensuring a smooth and responsive experience.
Enjoy the benefits of a true serverless environment with scale to zero capabilities. You only pay for instances while they are active, allowing for cost-effective management of your resources. Additionally, the optional Always Ready instances feature mitigates cold starts, providing a more efficient and user-friendly experience.
