I'm currently experimenting with publishing a SQL Server container app to Azure Container Apps, and I can't help but notice that it's taking a long time—like several hours. Is this common? Why would it take so long? Could it be due to resource capacity issues?

Typically, publishing a container app shouldn't take that long at all! If it's dragging on, it might be because the container image you're trying to use isn't valid or accessible. I would recommend testing it with a basic image like the 'hello world' to see if that speeds things up. For me, it usually wraps up in under a minute.
Nope, it shouldn't take that long. How are you going about the publishing process?
Yeah, it usually should only take less than a minute to publish a container app. So if it's taking hours, something’s definitely off.

I was using the Azure CLI. After stopping and retrying, it actually published in just a minute or two. Weird!
