How to work with Azure Functions in C#
Azure Functions is the serverless compute offering in the Microsoft Azure cloud. Essentially, “serverless” means you don’t even need a virtual machine to run an Azure Function.

This article presents an introduction to Azure Functions, why they are useful, and how we can work with them.As there are no servers that you have to manage, Azure Functions can scale automatically, and you pay only for the time your code runs. You can leverage Azure Functions for event processing in real time, or for scheduled data processing jobs, such as scheduled data backup or data clean-up. You can even use Azure Functions as serverless back ends to mobile applications.To read this article in full, please click here
