By: Abhishek Kumar, Srinivasa Mahendrakar

Overview of this book

With more enterprises adapting cloud-based and API-based solutions, application integration has become more relevant and significant than ever before. Parallelly, Serverless Integration has gained popularity, as it helps agile organizations to build integration solutions quickly without having to worry about infrastructure costs. With Microsoft Azure’s serverless offerings, such as Logic Apps, Azure Functions, API Management, Azure Event Grid and Service Bus, organizations can build powerful, secure, and scalable integration solutions with ease. The primary objective of this book is to help you to understand various serverless offerings included within Azure Integration Services, taking you through the basics and industry practices and patterns. This book starts by explaining the concepts of services such as Azure Functions, Logic Apps, and Service Bus with hands-on examples and use cases. After getting to grips with the basics, you will be introduced to API Management and building B2B solutions using Logic Apps Enterprise Integration Pack. This book will help readers to understand building hybrid integration solutions and touches upon Microsoft Cognitive Services and leveraging them in modern integration solutions. Industry practices and patterns are brought to light at appropriate opportunities while explaining various concepts.

When events are not delivered to event listeners within the time left before expiry, we can route those delivery-failed events to our Storage account. The process of storing undelivered events in the Storage account is called dead-lettering. By default, the dead-lettering process is not enabled on Azure Event Grid, and the events are lost when not delivered within delivery time windows. To enable dead lettering for Azure Event Grid, we can use the Azure portal:

  2. Navigate to the resource group and click on the Event Grid instance
  3. In the Event Grid blade, click on Event Subscription
  1. On the Event Subscription page, click Enable dead-lettering and select the storage container:

It is also worth noting that Azure Event Grid sends an event to the dead-letter location when it has tried...
