Server farm (service plan) SKUs

Question

Is there documentation in the wild that lists the sku names and tiers supported by Azure app service plans (server farms).

eg: name: "S1", tier: "Standard" = an S1 Standard.

and name: "Y1", tier: "Dynamic" = A function consumption plan.

A list of supported values (is there an Y2 consumption plan?) and the server configurations would really help with planning.

There are various ways to find the sku and capabilities for resources. This link references a few options for you: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-resource-manager/resource-manager-sku-not-available-errors

The current server farm descriptions are:

name    Tier        Full name D1      Shared      an D1 Shared F1      Free        an F1 Free B1      Basic       an B1 Basic B2      Basic       an B2 Basic B3      Basic       an B3 Basic S1      Standard    an S1 Standard S2      Standard    an S2 Standard S3      Standard    an S3 Standard P1      Premium     an P1 Premium P2      Premium     an P2 Premium P3      Premium     an P3 Premium P1V2    PremiumV2   an P1V2 PremiumV2 P2V2    PremiumV2   an P2V2 PremiumV2 P3V2    PremiumV2   an P3V2 PremiumV2 I1      Isolated    an I2 Isolated I2      Isolated    an I2 Isolated I3      Isolated    an I3 Isolated Y1      Dynamic     a  function consumption plan 

to deploy a server farm use this resource definition in ARM:

{   "type": "Microsoft.Web/serverfarms",   "apiVersion": "2016-09-01",   "name": "[parameters('hostingPlanName')]",   "location": "[resourceGroup().location]",   "properties": {     "name": "[parameters('hostingPlanName')]"   },   "sku": {     "name": "[parameters('hostingPlanSkuName')]",     "tier": "[parameters('hostingPlanSkuTier')]"   } } 

alternatively for a consumption plan; you can use a more specific api version:

{   "type": "Microsoft.Web/serverfarms",   "apiVersion": "2015-04-01",   "name": "[variables('hostingPlanName')]",   "location": "[resourceGroup().location]",   "properties": {       "name": "[variables('hostingPlanName')]",       "computeMode": "Dynamic",       "sku": "Dynamic"   } } 

is there an Y2 consumption plan?

Currently, Azure does not support this, Azure only support one type consumption plan.
