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. Some question sets might have more than one correct solution, while others might not have a correct solution. After you answer a question in this section, you will NOT be able to return to it. As a result, these questions will not appear in the review screen. You develop an HTTP triggered Azure Function app to process Azure Storage blob data. The app is triggered using an output binding on the blob. The app continues to time out after four minutes. The app must process the blob data. You need to ensure the app does not time out and processes the blob data. Solution: Configure the app to use an App Service hosting plan and enable the Always On setting.

Explanation

Always On enables waking up on HTTP trigger, but does not prevent the exceeding the max time out time of 230 seconds. If you run on an App Service plan, you should enable the Always on setting so that your function app runs correctly. On an App Service plan, the functions runtime goes idle after a few minutes of inactivity, so only HTTP triggers will "wake up" your functions. The Always on setting is available only on an App Service plan. On a Consumption plan, the platform activates function apps https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-functions/dedicated-plan#always-on
