While the idea of only paying for what you use seems to be an interesting proposition with serverless. I think the true cost savings come in no longer having to manage VMs. With that in mind the coldstart problem can be avoided entirely with Fargate and Azure container groups. Sure you pay for an app to be on all the time, but you were doing that anyways. I’m using Azure container groups and their managed DB service right now, and my CI pipeline is thin and I have had no need of an Ops person to manage VMs.
