Microservices/containers

Most of the microservices in Azure will leverage App Services; however, you may need a better management service, such as Kubernetes or Service Fabric. Service Fabric is basically Microsoft's version of a microservice and container manager that helps with the management of multiple microservices. Service Fabric can automatically heal and manage you microservices in a single location. Kubernetes runs the same as Service Fabric but is mainly for container support. Both of these environments are expensive to run as they require the VM scale set, a  load balancer, and routing under the hood to run.
