Azure Functions are an integral part of a Serverless architecture. Azure Functions allows you to run small pieces of code (called "functions") without worrying about application infrastructure. With Azure Functions, the cloud infrastructure provides all the up-to-date servers you need to keep your application running at scale.
- Create a "Hello World" Azure Function in Visual Studio Code that:
- Takes a name as an input parameter.
- Returns the name back to you as an output.
- Verify that you are able to open your function in a browser and pass your name in the query string. You should see a message like: Hello, YourName. This HTTP triggered function executed successfully.
- Understand the basic parts of an Azure Function's code and how to publish it to Azure
