Azure-functions-host: C++ support in Azure Functions?
_From @iszczesniak on March 24, 2017 9:10_
Hi,
I would like to use C++ REST SDK to develop my code in C++ and run it as an Azure Function.
Are there plans to support C++ for Azure Functions?
Best,
Irek

Lack of C++ support is the only hurdle keeping my business in AWS Lambda.

Any progress on this? We are still waiting before migrating our C++ based location analytics toolset to azure.

AWS supports this?
Sad, as our code is MS C++, would be weird to move it to AWS as Microsoft does not want to support its own codebase.

You can now supply your own container to run in Azure Functions. I've used this to run unsupported languages like Go and Swift in Functions and you could use them to run C++.

Can custom handlers help here https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-functions/functions-custom-handlers

Yes. We don't have an C++ example but if you can wrap your code in an http server, you can run it as a custom handler.
For WebAssembly, the simplest way is probably to call it from a Node.js function. I also have an example as a custom handler here: https://github.com/anthonychu/azure-functions-wagi-sample
