An organization is developing an event-driven background service that processes image uploads. The application receives unpredictable traffic throughout the day and experiences extended periods of complete inactivity.
The organization wants a cost-effective solution where compute charges occur only while the code is actively executing and resource costs drop to zero during idle periods.
Which compute model and billing structure meets these requirements?

Serverless computing is a cloud execution model where the cloud provider dynamically manages the provisioning, scaling, and maintenance of server infrastructure. Under a consumption-based billing plan, pricing is tied directly to the exact amount of compute resources and execution time consumed by the application rather than pre-allocated capacity.
For unpredictable, intermittent workloads, serverless consumption pricing provides the lowest total cost of ownership. Traditional hosting models require paying continuous runtime fees for idle servers, whereas consumption billing perfectly aligns infrastructure costs with real-time operational demand.
