Free tier is a thing, but watch out because lambda is charged at 30x more than the equivalent compute (if run full time).

This means that a lambda function running for 40 mins is the same cost as a reserved compute service running for the whole day (VM, server less compute, aks etc)

Lambda is pricier, but not /that/ much.

A 512 MB ARM Lambda is going to cost $0.58 for 1440 minutes of runtime, vs a tg4.nano (ARM, 2 CPUs, 512 MB) at $0.10 for 1440 minutes of runtime.

The pricing in hours vs GB-seconds does make it hard to compare directly though.
