What is Azure Container Instances?
Azure Container Instances enables running containers on Azure with minimal overhead. It provides a straightforward way to create and manage Docker containers in the Azure cloud, without the need to provision and maintain virtual machines or adopt a higher-level service. This solution is well-suited for any scenario that can operate within isolated containers, without the complexities of full orchestration. Users can leverage Azure Container Instances to run event-driven applications, quickly deploy from container development pipelines, and execute data processing and build jobs. This service falls under the Containers as a Service category, offering a convenient solution for containerized workloads on Azure
