NetFramework dll called from Azure Fn + DbConnection
dfirka1970 Yes this is possible using a shared project as one path (https://stackoverflow.com/questions/37608032/net-core-classlibrary-calling-net-framework-class-library) One thing to note is that since .NET FX is not cross-platform you'll be limited to where you can run this .NET core application. Also the 1.x version of Azure functions can run .NET Framework code natively: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-functions/functions-versions#languages
There are some best practices posted here on SQL Connections in Azure functions: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/41208524/sql-connection-pooling-in-azure-functions#:~:text=Azure%20Functions%20doesn%27t%20currently%20have%20SQL%20as%20an,pooling%20%29%2C%20you%20should%20get%20pooling%20by%20default.
