The main goal of this chapter is to get you familiar with Azure Functions and the best practices you can implement while using it. It is worth mentioning that the use of Azure Functions is a great alternative for having a serverless implementation that can accelerate your development. With them, you can deploy APIs faster, enable services triggered by timers, and even trigger processes by receiving events from storage.

In this chapter, we will cover the following topics:
