Difference between Container Instance and Azure App Service? : r/AZURE

Azure App Service has many features that help with web application development and management. It can host apps deployed directly as binaries/scripts or containers. Stuff like auth integrations, auto-scaling, automated deployments, ci/cd integrations, etc.

Azure Container Instance is a very simple container hosting service. It's not dedicated to web just hosting containers. Any kind of containers, batch jobs, web apps, etc. It's so called serverless container service in Azure.


The Node.js containers come with PM2, a production process manager. You can configure your app to start with PM2, or with NPM, or with a custom command.
