Free tier	Quoted: "Consumption plan pricing includes a monthly free grant of 1 million requests and 400,000 GB-s of resource consumption per month per subscription in pay-as-you-go pricing across all function apps in that subscription." Footnote on the same page: "Free grants apply to the on-demand meters on paid, consumption subscriptions only." unit GiB; metered on wall-clock; perpetual-allowance
Price	none stated
Limits	request-rate (binding) 400,000 GB-s a month is 3,200,000 instance-seconds at the minimum 128 MB allocation, which is 37.0 days of one always-resident 128 MB worker, so the grant is slightly larger than a month but a single function execution is capped at 10 minutes on the consumption plan and cannot stay resident. source
Identity	card not published
Egress	not stated
Interface	unknown inferred from the tooling the provider documents; not probed
Tooling	not stated
Composes with	3,200,000 instance-seconds is the largest perpetual serverless budget found and it needs no IPv4 front, so it composes with an IPv6-only VPS as the scheduler that renews and health-checks it, or as the worker for jobs the 10 minute limit can divide.
Reliability	no reliability event recorded
Notes	The 400,000 GB-s figure is a memory-time budget, not a wall-clock one: the same 400,000 buys 37 days at 128 MB, 18.5 days at 256 MB, or 9.3 days at 512 MB. The 'paid consumption subscriptions only' footnote is the unresolved part, because it may exclude the free trial subscription a user would start with; a probe of the portal quota page on a fresh subscription would settle it. Azure App Service F1 is the separate always-free web lane and is already recorded in the corpus.
Parsed numbers	request-rate 400000 GB
