Pro Tips

Use 'func start' locally to test functions before deploying.

Premium plan provides VNET integration and no cold starts.

Use Durable Functions for stateful workflows and orchestrations.

Common Mistakes

Consumption plan has cold start latency - use Premium for latency-sensitive apps.

Function timeout is 5 minutes on Consumption plan (configurable on Premium).
