Description
- For documentation issues, please provide exactly what is wrong/missing and why it's important.
I had a chat with @paulbatum about Azure Functions PowerShell vs. Azure Automation (which has PowerShell runbooks) at MSAUIgnite
I made this table of notes after attending some Automation sessions.

(sorry - OneNote pastes table as picture).
Talking to lots of power users and admin users - they are very keen on the differentiation of Azure Functions PowerShell vs Azure Automation.
This is mostly a moving target - but I ultimately see Azure Functions as a 'language neutral' way to write functions. And Azure Automation as specifically for running Admin PowerShell scripts.
I thought I get the ball rolling with this issue.
