Serverless computing in Azure with .NET

Summary

This chapter provided us with a solid introduction to the Azure serverless computing environment and walked us through the deployment of our first Azure Functions application.

In this chapter, we covered the basics of Microsoft Azure cloud and created our first serverless computing environment and a "Hello World" function. We also walked through application settings and environment configuration.

In the next chapter, we will walk through creating an Azure Functions project in Visual Studio and deploying it to our existing Azure environment. We will also set up two other application components: the database and the Web UI to demonstrate a real-world example of serverless computing utilization.
