S3 / Cloudfront is (apologies for the buzzword) serverless and incredibly cheap. It's public-facing only though.

Oh sorry i actually confused S3 for aws ec2 for some reason >_< Didnt really think about it to be honest, but will give it a look. Long as it can be connected to my pipeline!
If you want to stick with Azure, blob storage (+CDN if you want both HTTPS and a custom domain) works pretty well and is dirt cheap.
Thanks i'll have a look. Though i feel like i might miss my loadbalancer :) kind of attached to it now. But cheap sounds great!
you won't need a load balancer... it will just serve infinite scale (effectively) as they take care of that automatically.
