Azure Functions have had years to catch up to Lambda. Still waiting. 🫠 Cold starts are slow. Deployments are worse. I hit deploy and wait, never quite sure when my code is actually live. Lambda updates go through instantly. In prod that predictability matters!

Years to catch up? wow, that’s a slow start indeed!

What's frustrating is that Azure gets containers right. App Service is exactly what AWS AppRunner should have been (RIP AppRunner ☠️) Azure Container Apps is solid too. Microsoft knows how to ship great compute products!! FaaS just isn't one of them. The gap with Lambda is real.
