  • From Zero to Hero: Serverless with Azure Functions

    Simplify your development and deployment by building Serverless services with Azure Functions.

    About This Course

    Serverless compute is more popular than ever and for good reason. In a world where everyone wants to be as productive as possible, removing the concept of the "server" from the development pipeline can significantly speed up development. Pair that up with Azure's fantastic Functions offering with bindings, triggers and a straightforward deployment model, and you have a really fast way to develop and deploy software that can scale to millions of users and tens of thousands of requests per second. In this course, Cloud Architect Mohamad Lawand will teach you everything you need to know to become proficient in using and developing serverless software using Azure Functions.
