Azure Functions


Details
Come learn about an event-based serverless compute experience to accelerate your development. Creating successful backend services that work hand in hand with your organization's business critical applications in a browser and on mobile devices is complex. Taking into consideration scaling, security and deployment requirements when designing your backend is time consuming. On top of that, having to be cost effective and simple for developers to work with is critical to the success of the project. Azure Functions enables you to build backend services that integrates easily into your mobile and web development architecture stack. It allows you to deliver amazing apps significantly faster than you can today, stop worrying about the infrastructure and allow you to focus on what you do best: build great apps.
