 Azure Functions provides integrated support for developing, deploying, and managing containerized function apps on [Azure Container Apps](../container-apps/overview.md). Use Azure Container Apps to host your function app containers when you need to run your event-driven functions in Azure in the same environment as other microservices, APIs, websites, workflows, or any container hosted programs. Container Apps hosting lets you run your functions in a fully managed, Kubernetes-based environment with built-in support for open-source monitoring, mTLS, Dapr, and Kubernetes Event-driven Autoscaling (KEDA).
 
 You can write your function code in any [language stack supported by Functions](supported-languages.md). You can use the same Functions triggers and bindings with event-driven scaling. You can also use existing Functions client tools and the Azure portal to create containers, deploy function app containers to Container Apps, and configure continuous deployment.

 In this article, you create a function app running in a Linux container and deploy it to an Azure Container Apps environment from a container registry. By deploying to Container Apps, you're able to integrate your function apps into cloud-native microservices. For more information, see [Azure Container Apps hosting of Azure Functions](functions-container-apps-hosting.md).

 This article shows you how to create functions running in a Linux container and deploy the container to a Container Apps environment. 
 
 Completing this quickstart incurs a small cost of a few USD cents or less in your Azure account, which you can minimize by [cleaning-up resources](#clean-up-resources) when you're done.
