Serverless Compute can be thought of Function as a Service (FaaS) or a microservice that is hosted on the Cloud. Behind cloud, the applications are hosted as the stateless compute containers that are event-triggered and ephemeral, but you are not required to manage that server it is dynamically allocated by the service providers like Azure. You are actually using the compute resources which are being triggered by the clients, so that is why you pay only for the compute resources which were used. The best thing about serverless is its ability to auto-scale.

Azure is a cloud platform, that is used to host applications and manage a lot many services like databases, DNS, etc. It is reliable and easy to use platform. Azure provides different ways to host our application. We can use VMs or serverless. Here we will go with Serverless.
