What is scale-to-zero and how does it change cloud cost?
What is scale-to-zero?
Scale-to-zero flips the traditional cloud billing model: you pay only for the time your code is actually processing requests, not for the time a virtual machine simply exists. When traffic stops, the platform pauses the instance and your compute meter drops to zero.
