Azure 消费计划功能是否使用多台服务器？

Question

When I run an Azure Function App on the Consumption Plan, does it then utilize multiple servers, or does every instance of the functions always run on the same server?

Access Tokens The background for the question is that I want to cache the access tokens for APIs that the functions are using. Right now I refresh the tokens when the initial timer triggered function starts - but it's no real solution.

Each function should try using the existing auth token and then ask for a new one if it fails. Similar question here: authentication token cache for azure function with a comment saying the Consumption plan doesn't quarantee reuse of servers

Answer 1

Yes, it does utilise multiple servers, so in-memory caching will end up having multiple cache instances. The filesystem is shared across servers though, so disk-based caching is an option, or you can just go for a distributed cache like Azure Cache for Redis.

Answer 2

Yes, We end up using Redis Cache to handle the same scenario.
