Durable azure function versus azure function maximum execution duration

Question

I want to build an azure function which run on schedule bases to build around 30 reports data, once a day, the execution of the job can take more than 1 hour and i will host it inside a consumption plan. now as i know that azure function maximum execution time in consumption plan is 10 minutes, which will no work for me.. so if i add the durable function orchestration , what will be the maximum execution time ? can it extend to more than 1 hour under consumption plan?? Thanks

Answer 1

I had a similar task and ended up using containers instead: they're lightweight, not so limited in terms of resources and your existing functions can be easily converted to a container image that you'd run on schedule.

Hello @john john Pter - The Durable Functions is bound by the same 10min limit when running on Consumption plan. You might consider dedicated plans, webapp on app service, or a container apps for your scenario. Hope this helps. Feel free to tag me in the comments below if you have any follow-up questions.
