Topic 1: Building Microservices Live with Azure Functions
Abstract: Starting on the journey to create microservices might seem intimidating, but what if I told you it could be an exciting hands-on experience instead? Join me in this dynamic session where we won't just talk about Azure Functions; we'll roll up our sleeves and dive into creating a microservices system, live! In this interactive coding session, I invite you to code along with me to build a lightweight system from the ground up using Azure Functions. Please note that the hands-on coding will primarily be conducted in TypeScript, setting a lively platform for you to explore its robust capabilities in building microservices. However, if you're more at home with C#, you're more than welcome to follow along using C#. Ensure you come equipped with a working Azure subscription and a coding environment with the Azure Functions tools installed, ready to explore the exciting world of serverless microservices. Are you ready to start this coding adventure? Join me and discover the exciting world of microservices with Azure Functions!
