I'm not sure how much my app is going to cost me but all i want to do is make sure that if the costs go over a certain amount my app just stops working and I stop getting charged this feels like a simple functionality that should be basic but I don't really understand how to get this to happen with the azure serverless functions. When your making a free app that will be available for the general public you never know if someone is going to manage to make millions of accounts and have them using your functions a crazy amount of times leaving you with a bill of a few millions, you might of expected to pay 40 cents and end with 50 millions$ bill.
Seems logic to be shielded against this.
