Enterprise Integration with Azure Logic Apps

By: Matthew Bennett

Overview of this book

Logic Apps are a visual flowchart-like representation of common programming actions, and are a flexible way to create logic without writing a single line of code. Enterprise Integration with Azure Logic Apps is a comprehensive introduction for anyone new to Logic Apps which will boost your learning skills and allow you to create rich, complex, structured, and reusable logic with instant results. You'll begin by discovering how to navigate the Azure portal and understand how your objects can be zoned to a specific environment by using resource groups. Complete with hands-on tutorials, projects, and self-assessment questions, this easy-to-follow guide will teach you the benefits and foundations of Logic App logic design. As you advance, you'll find out how to manage your Azure environment in relation to Logic Apps and how to create elegant and reliable Logic Apps. With useful and practical explanations of how to get the most out of Logic App actions and triggers, you'll be able to ensure that your Logic Apps work efficiently and provide seamless integration for real-world scenarios without having to write code. By the end of this Logic Apps book, you'll be able to create complex and powerful Logic Apps within minutes, integrating large amounts of data on demand, enhancing your systems, and linking applications to improve user experience.

Summary

In this chapter, we have focused on the Log Analytics workspace. This is a tool used to monitor and manage your resource group and provides a picture of the number of runs, which runs are failing, and why. By taking a baseline of the number of successful runs within a 24-hour period, you have a metric you can use to compare performance as your resource group grows over time. We then created a logic app to simulate different run states and witnessed these in the workspace. We were able to use the runs table to resubmit failed runs. Finally, we looked at how PowerShell can be used for Azure management and specifically looked at a script to enable/disable all logic apps within a resource group.

By doing this, it will make your life as a developer easier. If you also manage the project, you have a ready-made tool to not only benchmark and determine success factors, but as a developer, you will be able to triage faults that have occurred, allowing you to resolve these in a timely...
