With the rise of cloud deployment, Microsoft provides a solution to easily run small pieces of code in the cloud with Azure Functions. Azure Functions provides great solutions for processing data, integrating systems, and building simple APIs and most importantly, systems with performance as good as microservices architecture.
This comprehensive 2-in-1 course teaches you how to use Azure functions for building scalable systems, APIs for chatbots, and deploying serverless applications. You’ll learn through practical demonstrations of use case, clear explanations, and interesting real-world applications. Each section briefly establishes theoretical basis for the topic under discussion and then cement your understanding with practical use cases.
This training program includes 2 complete courses, carefully chosen to give you the most comprehensive training possible.
The first course, Getting Started with Azure Serverless Computing Using Node.js, starts off with explaining the benefits and key features of Azure functions with the help of use cases. You will then learn the core aspects of Azure functions such as its offerings, the runtime, how to write Azure functions, and how to monitor and troubleshoot them. You will also learn practical recipes on how to access these functions (triggers). Next, you will learn how to configure and set up your own serverless codebase with hands-on steps and tutorials based on real-world serverless use cases. Finally, you will learn how to manage Azure functions and compliance to your serverless code.
The second course, Serverless Azure Functions: Debugging, Deployment and Chatbots, starts off with setting up codebase and debugging it on a local machine. You will then learn how to perform continuous deployment on GitHub and local repository. You will also see some of the best practices for serverless technology and a solution to cold-start issue. Next, you will learn logging and monitoring in real time. Finally, you will learn how to implement a scalable and highly available solution for a chatbot with the help of an use case.
By the end of this Learning Path, you will have all the skills required to work with serverless code architecture, providing continuous delivery to your users.
