Support for native Rust Azure Functions
As of February 2019, Azure Functions support native .NET, JavaScript and Python.
Could we please have native support to run Azure Functions written in Rust? To host Rust functions currently we have to pay for a Linux App Service plan and embed our functions within a Docker container. This is expensive just to run a few microservices written in Rust.
Peter Huene has an excellent project for anyone interest in writing Azure Functions in Rust....

Agree super cool project from Peter – and great to see interest. Recommend checking that out in the interim. Keep the votes coming but no immediate plans to pull this in as a first class language yet.
Thanks

Hi, we are building a cloud-native distributed application in Rust. We already have a good catch on amazon, but moving to Azure is a huge blocker without the support for serverless Rust functions.
Could it be possible to at least expose a language-agnostic runtime API for Azure functions just like AWS guys do it? -

This would be great. Presently I am considering switching to lambda as support there is better and my use for functions needs to be as failure-resistant as possible.

AWS supports Rust through lambda. Supporting Rust with functions would be a big win for Microsoft in terms of competing with Amazon.
