#spthingaday 020 – Development. Going Serverless with Azure. #SharePoint, #Office365.. Modern SharePoint Online gives developers many architecture choices. For full blown SharePoint Point apps use SharePoint Framework and build server components as Azure Web Apps (http://1jj.uk/azurewebapps). Store your transactional data in Azure SQL (http://1jj.uk/azuresql), use CosmosDB (http://1jj.uk/cosmosdb) for huge scale, or Azure Table Storage (http://1jj.uk/azuretables) for ultimate low cost. Automating Business Processes? Add your logic on top of existing SharePoint artefacts. Reacting to events? Logic Apps (http://1jj.uk/azurelogicapps) or Flow can connect to SharePoint and be triggered by events on Lists and Libraries. Complex logic? Logic Apps can easily create an Azure Function (http://1jj.uk/azurefunction) in C# or node.js, giving you full CSOM. Scheduled tasks? Logic Apps and Azure Function can both be triggered by time-based events. Gluing things together? Logic Apps with HTTP endpoints, or webhook-style Azure Functions for when you need synchronous behaviour. For asynchrony, consider Azure Storage Queues (http://1jj.uk/azurequeues). Logic Apps and Azure Functions can send and receive messages to and from these. #microsoft #microsoftoffice #microsoftsharepoint #microsofttraining #officetraining #freetraining #trainingvideos #contentmanagement #enterprisecontentmanagement

Modern SharePoint Online gives developers many architecture choices.

For full blown SharePoint Point apps use SharePoint Framework and build server components as Azure Web Apps (http://1jj.uk/azurewebapps). Store your transactional data in Azure SQL (http://1jj.uk/azuresql), use CosmosDB (http://1jj.uk/cosmosdb) for huge scale, or Azure Table Storage (http://1jj.uk/azuretables) for ultimate low cost.

Automating Business Processes?

Add your logic on top of existing SharePoint artefacts.

Reacting to events?

Logic Apps (http://1jj.uk/azurelogicapps) or Flow can connect to SharePoint and be triggered by events on Lists and Libraries.

Complex logic?

Logic Apps can easily create an Azure Function (http://1jj.uk/azurefunction) in C# or node.js, giving you full CSOM.

Scheduled tasks?

Logic Apps and Azure Function can both be triggered by time-based events.

Gluing things together?

Logic Apps with HTTP endpoints, or webhook-style Azure Functions for when you need synchronous behaviour.

For asynchrony, consider Azure Storage Queues (http://1jj.uk/azurequeues). Logic Apps and Azure Functions can send and receive messages to and from these.
