Summary

In this chapter, you learned about Durable Functions and how you can use them to implement orchestration scenarios and workflows based on Azure Functions.

Durable Functions allow you to write orchestrations and workflows simply writing code; they don't have designer or JSON script. They are designed for developers with a knowledge of a programming language (that is, C #) and the Azure Functions framework. Durable Functions is a powerful tool to implement your orchestration, but you need to take care when you change the orchestrator function to implement a new version of your code. Therefore, before starting to implement your solution using Durable Functions, evaluate well all the pros and cons in relation to your requirements and those of your team.

In the next chapter, you will see another way to implement orchestration and workflow in the serverless world: logic...
