I have a WebAPI application running on Azure WebSites. It works in the main mode, and I have the opportunity to make it "Always On". There seems to be conflicting information on the Internet about what this means. I know the effect, but thereβs a lot of how. In particular, does something automatically automatically reach the endpoint in my application? If so, can I control the endpoint at which it falls?
As I mentioned, this is a web API application, and the default route does nontrivial work and leads to a noticeable amount of outgoing traffic, and also leads to the elements being placed in a work queue that will ultimately be processed. I want the application to always be turned on (without a cold start), but I do not want some application service requests to be executed.
