    Hi Anil,

    You can deploy and run a Java JAR file on Azure Functions using Azure's support for custom Docker containers. Here's a general outline of the steps you would need to follow:

    1. Prepare Your Java Application: Ensure your Java application is packaged as a JAR file and includes all necessary dependencies. Test it locally to make sure it works as expected.
    2. Create a Docker Container: Azure Functions supports running custom Docker containers. You'll need to create a Docker container that includes your Java application and its dependencies. You can use a Dockerfile for this purpose.

    Follows a great article on MS Learn that helps you work with this:
