Introduction

One of the major goals of Azure Functions is to enable developers to just focus on developing application requirements and logic, and abstract everything else.

As a developer or business user, you cannot afford to invent and develop your own applications from scratch for each of your business needs. You would first need to research the existing systems and see whether they fit your business requirements. Often, it will not be easy to understand the APIs of the other systems and integrate them, as they will have been developed by someone else.

Azure provides many connectors that you can leverage to integrate your business applications with other systems pretty easily.

In this chapter, we will learn how easy it is to integrate the different services that are available in the Azure ecosystem.
