Azure Functions

Yeah.

Now that leads us to the second option, which is using Azure Functions.

And this is ideal when you need serverless computing for event-driven applications.

Okay.

It basically just means you don't have to worry about provisioning or maintaining the underlying servers, right? Like you only use and pay for the compute power when the function actually runs.

That's exactly it.

And what makes Azure Functions so powerful in this context is the architecture of triggers and bindings.

So a trigger determines exactly when your code should run.
