Deep Dive: Azure for Developers
Deep dive into Microsoft Azure as a Software Engineer
About This Course
Cloud computing is a given these days. This Deep Dive starts where the Getting Started:
Azure for Developers course stopped and focuses on the common, serverless Azure components
you�re bound to run into as a developer working with the cloud. After learning the what, why,
and how of serverless computing, you�ll dive into Azure Functions, from developing and securing
to publishing them. Then, you�ll be introduced to Logic Apps, another of Azure�s popular
serverless offerings. Not only will you learn how to develop those and which use cases they
make sense for, but you�ll also learn how to integrate Logic App workflows with Azure functions.
After that, you�ll dive into API management, using APIM to manage, secure, test and debug your
APIs on Azure. Lastly, you�ll learn about Event Grid, another popular serverless offering which
is very useful in event-driven software and architectures.
