Lets talk about what really makes up MSFT’s Serverless platform: At the center of the Serverless platform, is our compute offerings: Azure Functions and Azure Logic Apps. Azure Functions is an event based Serverless compute experience that helps you accelerate your development. Logic Apps is a powerful workflow and orchestration tool. It enables building a Serverless app in minutes – by orchestrating multiple functions using a visual workflow tool.
Say you have your apps up and running using Serverless. Congratulations! You now need to collect intelligence from different apps across platforms to take actions upon. There are a few essential components which we think are core to building Serverless applications are:
Data/ Storage –Functions has triggers and bindings with Azure document DB and Azure Blob storage
** Triggers: Triggers are event responses used to trigger your custom code. They allow you to respond to events across the Azure platform or on premise.
** Bindings: Bindings represent the necessary meta data used to connect your code to the desired trigger or associated input or output data.
Messaging such as queues and topics using Azure Service Bus and Azure Event Hubs
Integration – that includes core LOB apps and SaaS apps integration via Azure Logic Apps.
Intelligence on data and sentiment/ predictive analysis using Cognitive services and Machine learning
Conversation as a service – how do we equip developers to build apps that offer an end-to-end experience for their end users – Azure Bot Service offers a Serverless interactive bot experience.
More, developers are spending more time writing code that allows them to add huge business impact with Serverless. MSFT offers numerous development tools such as IDE Support for Visual Studio in functions and Logic Apps, enables local development (vs web browser coding environment), visual debugging capability, all with your tools of choice.
Lastly, I also want to highlight top scenarios and use cases for Serverless:
Real-time Stream analytics: Customers can use Functions to feed real-time streams of data from application tracking into structured data and store it in SQL online.
SaaS event processing: Customers can use Functions and Logic Apps to analyze data from an excel file in Onedrive and perform validation, filtration, sorting and convert data into consumable business charts
Web app architecture: Used a lot in creating targeted marketing collaterals – when a customer clicks on a webpage, it triggers a webhook, that uses a function to create an ad that matches the customer profile and displays a completed webpage.
Real-time bot messaging: When customers send a message to a chatbox, Functions calls Cortana analytics to generate appropriate answers and sends a response back.
//from before: Customers have different paths to build a Serverless app – start by building the distributed application components using functions by leveraging the numerous templates and declarative bindings Or
Start with the workflow and orchestration of Serverless application using Azure Logic Apps. The visual designer enables developers to quickly and easily author, edit and visualize orchestration of multiple functions and workflow.

Functions triggers and bindings
9/18/2018 6:17 AM
As I mentioned earlier, triggers and bindings are the things that facilitate easy communication with other services. This chart shows us the triggers and bindings currently supported. As we can see, there are a number of Azure services supported here…. for Storage, Database, Messaging, Notifications and so on. In addition to those, Functions also support generic Http triggers, which means you can easily write a piece of code that can be used to respond to REST requests or requests from any service that supports webhooks. This also provides a really fast and easy mechanism for building extensions to SaaS applications. We are fully committed to making this list grow and making more check-marks appear in that table.

20. Scenario: SaaS Integration

Scenario: SaaS Integration
Transalta
Deliver a chat bot to aid field technicians
Potentially one of the best would be TransAlta (power company in Canada) who has built a bot to help run their business across different line-of-business systems.  For example operators can ask the bot “What incidents do I need to look at today?”  And it calls an “API” which is just a Logic App behind the scenes to retrieve the data.  He just presented on it at the London INTEGRATE conference (there’s a blip on it herehttps:// They do also use Functions in their logic apps – so would be an honest mashup.
Kent showed us two impressive demos with examples of leveraging the Bot Framework, in which both Microsoft Teams and Skype were used to interact with the end users. All backend requests went through Azure API Management, which invoked Logic Apps reaching out to multiple backend systems: SAP, ServiceNow, MOC, SQL and QuadrigaCX. Definitely check out this session, when the videos are published!
