Is it possible to host an ASP.NET Core WebApi in an Azure Function? I would like my Azure Function to serve only as an entry point, while the endpoint management is handled by the WebApi. AWS provides this possibility: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/lambda/latest/dg/csharp-package-asp.html. Is there something similar in Azure?
