Shared lock between App Service and Webjob

问题:

I want to have a shared lock between the Webjob and the App Service code. I have tried lock keyword as well as mutex in C# but they don't seem to be working. Another alternative I could think of is Blob lease which is also the locking mechanism used for locking within webjobs environments as written here.

Do azure webjobs run in a totally separate environments from the App Service such that the shared locks are not working, or am I missing something ? Is there any other way ?

回答1:

WebJobs run in a separate process so a lock in C# will not work.

Lease on a blob is one way to make a distributed lock. Here is one article which can point you in the right direction with that: https://medium.com/veyotech/using-an-azure-lease-blob-as-a-distributed-mutex-a9608c918801
