Introduction to Serverless with Azure Functions
What serverless is, Azure Functions, hosting plans, triggers and bindings and your first function.

Imagine being able to deploy code directly to the internet, without ever configuring a server, without managing OS updates, without thinking about scalability — Azure handles it.
