Build serverless solutions using Azure Functions. This book provides you
with a deep understanding of Azure Functions so you can build highly
scalable and reliable serverless applications.
The book starts with an introduction to Azure Functions and demonstrates
triggers and bindings with use cases. The process to build an OTP mailer
with Queue Storage Trigger and SendGrid output binding is presented, and
timer triggers and blob storage binding are covered. Creating custom
binding for Azure Functions and building a serverless API using Azure
Functions and Azure SQL are discussed. You will know how to build a
serverless API using Azure Functions and Azure Cosmos DB, and you will
go over enabling application insights and Azure Monitor. Storing
function secrets in Azure Key Vault is discussed as well as
authentication and authorization using Azure Active Directory. You will
learn how to secure your serverless apps using API Management and deploy
your Azure Functions using IDEs.
Deploying your Azure Functions using CI/CD pipelines is demonstrated
along with running Azure Functions in containers. You will learn how to
leverage Azure Cognitive Services to build intelligent serverless apps.
And the authors introduce you to Azure Durable functions and teach you
how to integrate Azure Functions in the logic app workflow. They also
discuss best practices and pitfalls to avoid while designing Azure
Functions.
After reading this book, you will be able to design and deploy Azure
Functions and implement solutions to real-world business problems
through serverless applications.
