Abstract
In this chapter, we will utilize Azure Functions to create several serverless applications. Previously, we looked at AWS and created two functions, one triggered by an S3 bucket upload and one triggered by an HTTP request. We will recreate these two triggers with different real-world examples using Azure’s services. This will give us a look into Azure’s resources and how they differ from AWS. It will also allow us to explore other ways to create and use serverless applications. For the following exercises, we will use Azure functions, WebHooks, API triggers, and Azure Queue Storage. By the end of this chapter, we will have three serverless applications and experience with several Azure services as well as a better understanding of picking cloud providers.
