A comment on Show HN: Posthook – Job Scheduling as a Service. Parent comment
That Azure pricing is very competitive / cheap! That's 22 million requests per month for USD 14.
1 timer on my service can do max request 1 per second (2.6 million per month) and that 1 timer would cost $26.
On my biggest plan you can get 4000 timers and 100 million requests per month for $495.
Still Azure is beating my prices by about 10 times. But they can't do second resolution (yet?), so they're still only a "distributed cron".
