C# Corner announced a new webinar on "Azure Functions – A Stateful workflow on Top of Stateless Architecture"
Abstract:
Serverless architecture is great and with azure functions, it can reduce your cost and make your azure bill go down. But if you want to run any long-running task then the azure function needs to be run in-app service plan rather than the consumption plan. So long-running plans do not make much sense with azure functions. The problem for long-running jobs is now solved with Durable functions. Durable Function is an extension of Azure Functions and Azure WebJobs that lets you write stateful functions in a serverless environment. The extension manages state, checkpoints, and restarts for you.

Agenda:
- Function Chaining pattern to execute multiple functions in a sequence.
- Fan-out/fan-in pattern to execute multiple functions in parallel.
- Async HTTP APIs Pattern to solve the problem of coordinating the state of long-running operations with external clients. It simplifies the code you write for interacting with long-running function executions.
