Question

Note: This question is part of a series of questions that present the same scenario. Each question in the series contains a unique solution that might meet the stated goals.

As a result, these questions will not appear in the review screen. You have an Azure web app named App1. App1 runs in an Azure App Service plan named Plan1. Plan1 is associated to the Free pricing tier. You discover that App1 stops each day after running continuously for 60 minutes. You need to ensure that App1 can run continuously for the entire day. Solution: You add a continuous WebJob to App1. Does this meet the goal?

Why each option

Adding a continuous WebJob does not overcome the daily CPU quota limit imposed by the Free App Service plan, which stops the app after 60 minutes of CPU usage.

AYes

Adding a continuous WebJob will consume CPU time, further contributing to the exhaustion of the daily 60-minute CPU quota in the Free App Service plan, rather than allowing the app to run continuously.

BNoCorrect

The Free tier of Azure App Service plans has a daily CPU quota of 60 minutes. Once this quota is reached, the web app and any associated WebJobs are stopped until the quota resets, preventing continuous operation for the entire day. To achieve continuous operation, the App Service plan must be scaled to a higher tier like Basic, Standard, or Premium, which do not enforce daily CPU quotas.
