Server-less compute with .NET based Azure Functions

on YouTube ↗42m

" summary

Overview of concrete outcomes and tools: demos use .NET / C# in Visual Studio with Functions Core Tools and Azure Storage Explorer, published artifacts include generated function.json and NuGet QR-code library, debugging works locally with the storage emulator. Examples: QR-code generator writes PNG into blob storage, queue-trigger divides a million-record job into chunked messages to enable scaling, unit tests invoke the Run method directly and CI/CD publishes app‑service artifacts. Notes on limits: consumption plan has time and memory caps and durable functions handle long fan‑out/fan‑in workflows.
