Minimum elastic instance count Azure App Service

Currently, I am running a Dockerized Java Spring Boot application using Azure App Service. The App Service plan configuration is B1. When I display the App Service in JSON View, I notice a parameter called minimumElasticInstanceCount with a value of 0 in siteConfig. I would like to understand what this parameter means. Could someone please explain it to me?

Thank you for all your help.

    minimumElasticInstanceCount is a parameter used in Autoscaling. It is used to define the number of instances that should be available at the minimum when the load is very low. You can see more about autoscaling at Microsoft TechCommunity – Apps on Azure Blog

    The minimumElasticInstanceCount parameter in Azure App Service’s siteConfig controls the minimum number of instances that are always running for apps deployed on an Elastic Premium (EP) App Service Plan. It helps ensure that a baseline number of instances are ready, reducing cold starts and improving responsiveness.

    Since you’re using the B1 (Basic) App Service Plan, this setting is not relevant, as it only applies to Elastic Premium Plans.
