 # Use serverless containers on Azure
 
-Serverless computing offers services that manage and maintain servers, which relieve you of the burden of physically operating servers yourself. Azure Container Apps is a serverless platform that handles scaling, security, and infrastructure management for you - all while reducing costs. Once freed from server-related concerns, you're able to spend your time focusing on your application code.
+Serverless computing provides services that manage and maintain servers, which relieves you of the burden of physically operating servers yourself. Azure Container Apps is a serverless platform that handles scaling, security, and infrastructure management for you, in addition to reducing costs. When you don't need to manage servers, you can spend your time focusing on your application code.
 
 Container Apps make it easy to manage:
 
-1. **Automatic scaling**: As requests for your applications fluctuate, Container Apps keeps your systems running even during seasons of high demand. Container Apps meets the demand for your app at any level by [automatically creating new copies](scale-app.md) (called replicas) of your container. As demand falls, the runtime removes unneeded replicas on your behalf.

-1. **Security**: Application security is enforced throughout many layers. From [authentication and authorization](authentication.md) to [network-level security](networking.md), Container Apps allows you to be explicit about the users and requests allowed into your system.

-| [Build the app](quickstart-portal.md) | Deploy your first app, then create an event driven app to process a message queue. |
-| [Scale the app](scale-app.md) | Learn how Containers Apps handles meeting variable levels of demand. |
-| [Enable public access](ingress-overview.md) | Enable ingress on your container app to accept request from the public web. |
-| [Observe app behavior](observability.md) | Use log streaming, your apps console, application logs, and alerts to observe the state of your container app.  |
-| [Configure the virtual network](networking.md) | Learn to set up your virtual network to secure your containers and communicate between applications.  |
-| [Run a process that executes and exits](jobs.md) | Find out how jobs can help you run tasks that have finite beginning and end.  |
