Please note as this is a hands on workshop, please carry your laptops.

Topic 1: Building event-driven serverless solutions with Azure Functions

Discover the power of event-driven serverless solutions with Azure Functions in session as we guide you through the process of building a serverless solution that classifies documents based on their language using Azure Cognitive Services.

In this session, you will gain a deep understanding of event-driven architectures and their benefits. You'll explore the core concepts of serverless computing and learn how Azure Functions can be leveraged to respond to events in real-time. We'll cover the fundamentals of Azure Cognitive Services and demonstrate how to integrate them seamlessly with Azure Functions to process and classify documents stored in blob storage.

Throughout the workshop, you will follow along with hands-on exercises to solidify your knowledge. By the end, you will have the practical skills needed to architect event-driven workflows and build scalable, efficient serverless solutions.

Key takeaways from this session include:

1. Understanding the fundamentals of event-driven serverless computing and its advantages.
2. Learning how to use Azure Functions to build event-driven applications.
3. Integrating Azure Cognitive Services to classify documents based on language.
4. Developing practical skills through hands-on exercises.
