A quick preview of how posts on this blog will look. Most will follow a simple shape: context → options → recommendation → trade-offs.
Context
You’re building a workload on Azure. You have a handful of services to choose from, each with opinionated defaults.
Options
| Service | Best for | Watch out for |
|---|---|---|
| App Service | Classic web apps | Cold starts on lower tiers |
| Container Apps | Microservices | Dapr complexity if you don’t need it |
| Functions | Event-driven | Long-running workloads |
Recommendation
Pick the smallest service that meets your requirements today — and make sure the next step up is a short migration, not a rewrite.
Trade-offs
Every architecture choice is a trade-off. I’ll call them out explicitly in each post so you can decide what fits your context.
More posts coming soon.
