Azure Functions

What are Azure Functions, and how does it work?
Azure Functions is a serverless compute service in Microsoft Azure that enables you to run code in response to events without managing infrastructure. It allows developers to create small, single-purpose functions in languages like C#, Python, JavaScript, and more.

Key Features & Benefits

  • Event-Driven Execution – Functions can be triggered by HTTP requests, message queues, timers, and other Azure services.
  • Automatic Scaling – Azure Functions automatically scales based on demand, ensuring high availability without manual intervention.
  • Cost-Effectiveness – Pay only for the resources consumed during execution, making it a cost-efficient solution.
  • Seamless Integration – Easily integrates with Azure services like Azure Storage, Event Grid, and Cosmos DB.
  • Multi-Language Support – Write functions in C#, Python, JavaScript, Java, PowerShell, and more.

Triggers & Bindings

  • Triggers – Events that start the execution of an Azure Function (e.g., HTTP request, queue message, blob storage event).
  • Bindings – Simplifies data interactions by providing input and output connections to various data sources (e.g., Azure Storage, SQL Database).

Azure Functions is ideal for building microservices, automating workflows, and handling real-time data processing efficiently.
