Building Serverless Nanoservices Using Azure Functions
In this chapter, you will be introduced to functions implemented using Azure Functions, which can be configured to only require server-side resources while they execute. The functions execute when they are triggered by an activity like a message sent to a queue, a file uploaded to Azure Storage, or at a regularly scheduled interval.
This chapter will cover the following topics:
- Understanding Azure Functions
- Building an Azure Functions project
- Responding to timer and resource triggers
- Publishing an Azure Functions project to the cloud
- Cleaning up Azure Functions resources
