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.

Uploading schemas and maps

In any B2B interface implementation, schemas and maps play a vital role. Schemas ensure that the messages sent from the trading partner stick to a specific EDI standard. Maps help to translate messages from one format to another.

If you have used the BizTalk EDI feature, you will know that BizTalk provides built-in EDI schemas for a range of versions. The same XSD schemas can be used for Logic Apps as well. However, if you do not have BizTalk installed, download Microsoft Azure Logic Apps Enterprise Integration Tools for Visual Studio 2015 2.0 https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=53016...
