Lectures@Home - Durable Functions
Maxime Rouiller
Cloud Developer Advocate at Microsoft
Language: English
Durable Functions is an extension of Azure Functions that lets you write stateful functions in a serverless compute environment. The extension lets you define stateful workflows by writing orchestrator functions and stateful entities by writing entity functions using the Azure Functions programming model. Behind the scenes, the extension manages state, checkpoints, and restarts for you, allowing you to focus on your business logic. The primary use case for Durable Functions is simplifying the complex, stateful coordination requirements in serverless applications.
