Flexibility with Serverless Azure Functions

on YouTube ↗16m

" summary

A working conference icebreaker app takes photos via a QR link, stores images in Blob Storage, triggers an HTTP Azure Function that calls Cognitive Services Face API to return attributes (smile, age, introvert/extrovert), then uses an output binding to SignalR Service to broadcast results; deployment uses the Azure Functions core tools with JSON trigger/binding files and nightly cleanup of blobs for privacy. Demo attracts about five participants and shows smile scores up to 99%.
