Building Serverless APIs with Azure Functions and Azure SQL
In this article, We discuss about Serverless Computing, Azure Function and Azure SQL in a concise manner. Then. We discuss how to make one using Visual Studio 2019 using C#. In this article, We create an HTTP Trigger Azure Function to Insert a value into our Table in Azure SQL Database every time we make a request to it by passing a name in the query string or the request body. We'll be using ADO.NET for the database interaction and see how easy it is to make a Serverless Application to perform Insert operations to our database.

 

Serverless Prediction of a Product Feedback [Community]
If you are developing any product, feedback is much more important. You must trace every feedback like feature request or Bugs/Issues. Open Source projects are much easier to track the feedbacks /bugs, however when coming to any non-open-source projects it is always difficult. In this post, Jayendran explains using the power of serverless how we can grab and maintain every feedback and issues easily in real-time.

 

Creating a Serverless Resume with Visitor Counter in Azure
What's a better way to showcase your experience with Azure serverless if not by building your resume/portfolio website using azure serverless services?. I would teach you how to build a resume/portfolio website with a serverless service to store the visitor's count (Azure Cosmos DB), a serverless service to retrieve and update the visitor's count from our store(Azure Functions), a serverless service to host our static resume website (Azure Storage) and an additional service to cache and make our static website load faster (Azure CDN).

The Curious Developer's Guide to Portable Azure Functions
Azure Functions allow you to execute small snippets of code, in the cloud, without concern for cloud infrastructure. These functions are triggered by several different types of event sources, making them the building blocks of an event-driven or "serverless" architecture. They're easy to write, deploy, and connect to other cloud services to create powerful applications. Azure Functions are also open source! But did you know they're also... portable?

Go Full-Stack for the First Time by Microsoft Technologies

There was a time when Microsoft hated opensource. In the last decade, they realized that opensource is the future and decided to start heavily investing in it. They went from zero to hero.

A lot of key elements of the opensource world belong to Microsoft. They have reached the point where you can be a full-stack developer without leaving the Microsoft ecosystem, and I'll tell you why it is a game-changer.

The Angular Show - State Management pt. 4 - RxJS & Singleton Services
Dan Wahlin

In part 4 of our series on State Management in Angular, panelists Aaron Frost, Brian Love, and Jennifer Wadella spend some time with Deborah Kurtata & Dan Wahlin, two well-known and loved experts on using RxJS for managing the state of your application. Deborah is a Pluralsight author and speaker who has taught many of us the basics of RxJS and how we can effectively use RxJS for state management. Dan is also a Pluralsight author and speaker, as well as the author of the observable-store library that provides a guided approach to state management with RxJS.In this episode, you can expect to learn strategies for using RxJS, observables, subjects, and more, as both data streams and state management solutions for Angular applications. Deborah and Dan share their approaches and what they have learned with the community. Join us as we further unpack state management in Angular using RxJS.
