Course Description

NEWCOURSE- JUSTLAUNCHEDNOV 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 CPUusage, 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.

FunctionsLogic AppsEvent GridCosmosDBAzure StorageMessaging 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.

Who this course is for:
Senior technical people with exposure to AzureThose interested in the Azure Serverless featuresBusiness or technical people who want to see Serverless in action

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 415,000 students. I am grateful every day with 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 mostlarge enterprises. I'm certified as an Azure Architect and Developertoo. As well as AWSSolution Architect Associate (SAA).

Good till Now

By Jan Kokott on 10/12/2020

As is the nature of cloud services, a lot of what is shown in this course is already outdated.
But some of the major functions, like the browser based function development, is already marked as "The classic Azure Functions management experience is deprecated and will be taken offline in October 2020". So either this course gets updated, or it is not really useful anymore.

By Anders Albert on 10/7/2020

As an absolute beginner, this course gave a nice introduction and overview of serveless as a concept as well as a few short demonstrations. Compared to the other courses I have done on Udemy this has a very low ROI. Two hours is not much time, and the knowledge I am left with is superficial at best.
