Denver Software Architects,

Please join us for our monthly meeting. This month we will be meeting virtually, please register here: https://register.gotowebinar.com/register/1222316487419108621. This month we are excited to have Mike Douglas speak about Azure Serverless Functions.

Topic:
Focus on Your App and Not on Your Infrastructure Using Serverless Functions in Azure

Executive Summary:
Serverless architecture provides the ability to focus on the code while encouraging good coding patterns like microservices. Azure Functions provide the ability to host and auto-scale serverless functions without the complexity of containers and orchestrators. In this talk, learn about serverless architecture and event driven development and the advantages over using PAAS and containers. See how to create, deploy, and monitor Azure Functions. I will wrap up with explaining some of the lessons that we have learned using it on several projects.
