Exam AZ900 Topics: architecture Difficulty: hard

A retailer's platform team is decomposing a monolith into containerized microservices. The team does not want to manage virtual machines, does not want to learn and operate a full container orchestration system, but still needs each microservice to scale with demand and spread requests across instances without building that plumbing itself. Which Azure service best matches these needs?
