Pricing
Usage-based pricing model:

- Resources consumption: billed based on the time taken by the function and the chosen memory tier.
- Provisioned resources (optional): you can set a minimum scale to reduce cold starts, keeping a certain number of function instances ready. Pricing details are provided in the product documentation; there are no fixed monthly fees beyond provisioned-scale options.
