Azure Functions
Azure Functions is a serverless compute service provided by Microsoft Azure that allows you to run code in response to events without managing infrastructure. It's essentially a "Functions as a Service" (FaaS) offering, enabling you to focus on the code that solves your specific problem, while Azure handles the underlying infrastructure. Easily execute Azure Functions, monitor and manage them with your existing enterprise workload automation as well as other cloud-native activity. You are instantly inheriting the advanced capabilities of your enterprise solution to deliver your digital transformation quicker and more successfully. By extending your existing enterprise automation to Azure Functions you maintain end-to-end visibility, regain centralized command and control, alerting, SLA management, reporting and auditing.
