Azure Web Apps or cloud service to host WCF integration service

I need to deploy the .NET WCF Integration Service on the Azure platform, which should be minimal after deployment. The service uses SQL databases and needs to access some forms of storage, such as Blobs.

My question is: is there enough web application or do I need a cloud service?

Note. I am a little confused by the difference between Azure Web Apps and websites. All documentation relates to websites (which I understand), but on my Azure portal I see only cloud services, a virtual machine, and web applications . At the moment, I assume that when the documentation relates to websites, is this the old name for web applications?

I myself experimented with this. At first I used my WCF service, which has similar requirements for yours (access to blogs, etc.) using a cloud service.

This worked fine, but from the point of view of billing, you are counting on the computing hours for the entire service, because, as I understand it, it works inside its own VM.

I recently read this blog article.

I converted my cloud service to a web application, and for me it was functionally identical to deploying cloud services.
