Azure App Service Usage

Question

I have deployed my web service in microsoft azure as App Service( Basic B1 ). recently i observed that i was not using entire resources(CPU,Memory) in Basic B1 . so i decided to scale down my resources(CPU,Memory).

i know that Shared is the next low plan to Basic B1 . But i need more Resources(CPU,Memory) than Shared plan is providing.

My Questions Are

1) is there any intermediary plan between ( Basic B1 ) and Shared .

2) Why Azure is not costing based on the amount of the resources what i have used?

Answer 1

1) No. The tier below Basic B1 is Shared.

2) You are reserving capacity from a host. You are billed based on that. This way if your app should need more CPU/memory, it already has it available.
