" summary

Shows a concrete cheap stack: static site on Blob Storage + CDN, backend as Azure Functions (1M free executions, 400k GB-s free), data in Table Storage, API surface via API Management (consumption tier, 1M free requests then ~30 NOK/million) with App Insights logging. Live demo wires blob→CDN→Functions→API Management→Table and works onstage; billing for the demo is under 1 NOK for ~100 requests, with the largest cost coming from function storage and persisted data. Notes Event Grid (100k free, ~5 NOK/million), Container Instances (~10 NOK/day for 1 GB).
