Course Description

NEW COURSE - JUST LAUNCHED NOV 2017

You've been working on this app for months. You finally publish it live, and you start letting people know about it. Then you have a new set of problems - checking the CPU usage, worrying about performance, almost hoping that it doesn't get too popular too fast. Do you have to spin up more servers in advance in case there is a spike in demand?

Azure Serverless apps promises to take the stress and worry about application scaling off your hands. If you code your application using logic apps, functions, messages, and events, Azure will add more server power when your application needs it, and will take care of scaling back down when you don't. And you only pay for what you use. No hourly compute charges when a server is running but not doing much.

In this course, we'll look at all of the components of an Azure Serverless app. 

  • Functions
  • Logic Apps
  • Event Grid
  • CosmosDB
  • Azure Storage
  • Messaging and Queuing

Beyond the overview, we'll also look at the Azure Portal and see live walkthroughs of creating Serverless apps. Then you'll have a chance to do it yourself using Assignments. 

To be sure, Azure Serverless apps aren't perfect or for every situation. Virtual Machines aren't going away. But there are some great uses for these small functions that have specific tasks to perform, and in this course we'll look at how to add Serverless apps to your toolbox.

Instructor Details

Scott Duffy

Hi there, my name is Scott Duffy. And I love making complex technical topics easy to understand. 

    This has been the basis of my entire career – as a developer, as a development manager, as a software architect – over the past 20 years. I spend half my time in the world of business, explaining complex technical topics to business owners and stakeholders so that they can understand and agree with my approach to solving their business problems with technical solutions. And the other half with developers, explaining the business reasons behind decisions and ensuring that any decisions made on the technical side don't restrict the business in unexpected ways. 

    And I'm here on Udemy to teach what I know in an approachable way. I started teaching courses in 2014, and have taught over 1,600,000 students. I am grateful every day for being able to connect with so many students in almost every country around the world.

    I'm a certified Enterprise Architect and certified cloud architect. I have been developing with Microsoft technologies for 20 years, starting with Classic ASP, and all the versions of .NET. We now live in the cloud era, with Microsoft Azure being prevalent in most large enterprises. I'm certified as an Azure Architect and Developer too. As well as AWS Solution Architect Associate (SAA).

    Microsoft MVP Award winner for 2022-2025.

As a technical recruiter, I found this course super helpful in understanding the basics around Azure Functions & Serverless apps. Even though I do not code myself in my role, I try to keep up with different tech stacks my teams are using, and I felt this course was very approachable for all levels of software engineering exposure.

Excelente curso. Permite iniciarme en la implementación y uso del new Serverless model for Cloud Apps, using Azure Functions, Logic Apps, and Event Grid. Actualmente lidero implementación de servicios back end para Billeteras (wallet) y el uso de los recursos Azure son muy necesarios.

This is a really nice serveless overview, with great real examples on each azure service discussed and even with some dive into the azure portal. However, you won't develop a serveless app here. Keep that in mind and enjoy it.

Simply, clearly and what is more excellent pronunciation of lector what is ver important for people of abroad. Material has been prepared in an understandable way. Massive thanks.

Nicely organized and reasonable to follow. Prior knowledge of C# and JS languages will be helpful in completing a few of the tasks. Overall the course provides a big picture view of Azure Serverless Functions and those features available on a consumption basis.

its really good course to learn server less function , logic apps , few things are on very high level and brief , it would be better if it can cover more in depth or particle usage scenarios. Thanks Scott for this course.
