Description

In this course, you will learn how to create your own Azure Functions apps and visualize how full applications can be built using Azure Functions. We will also explore the tools needed to support development, both locally and in the Azure portal, and explore the different triggers, bindings, and deployment models that are possible.

Azure Functions is one of the quickest and easiest ways to get your code running in Azure while maintaining a cost-effective and serverless model. This course will teach you how to develop your own Azure Functions apps and visualize how complete applications can be built with Azure Functions' powerful yet simple paradigm. You'll explore the tools required for development, both locally and in the Azure portal, for various triggers, bindings, and deployment models. In this course, you'll learn Azure Functions' hosting plans, explore C#, TypeScript, other language options, develop and test Azure Functions using Azure Portal editor, Visual Studio, and Visual Studio Code. Next, you'll learn to create and manage Azure Functions, understand bindings and triggers, use Azure CosmosDB, monitor performance and identify potential errors using application insights, build client applications, setup CORS policies, and explore security with Azure active directory (AD). By the end of this course, you'll have a fundamental understanding of what Microsoft Azure Functions are along with their uses and interaction with other applications.

What You Will Learn

Create serverless workflows using durable functions
Build, test, deploy and monitor your own Azure Functions apps
Build client apps to interact with Azure Functions app
Use local emulators for development and testing against Azure services
Create and manage Azure Functions
Explore security with Azure AD for deployed Azure Function apps

Audience

This course is for new as well as seasoned developers looking to reap the full potential of Azure functions. To get started with this course, you'll need basic programming skills, access to an Azure account, and a device that can run Azure storage emulators successfully.

Approach

This course aligns with the training required for the exam AZ-204: Developing Solutions for Microsoft Azure examination, though it is not an official training guide.

It is perfect for you if you need to know enough about developing with Azure Functions to be functional in your workspace, without taking the exam.
