Session Abstract

Azure Functions make it simple to connect serverless code to other Azure services—but once you move beyond basic triggers, bindings can become complex. This session takes you past the fundamentals and into advanced binding scenarios that developers encounter in real-world applications. We’ll explore input and output bindings for Blob Storage, Table Storage, Queues, Event Grid, and Azure SQL, including how to call stored procedures. Along the way, you’ll learn configuration details, best practices, and practical tips to avoid common pitfalls. Whether you’re building event-driven workflows or integrating with enterprise data sources, this session will give you the confidence to leverage bindings effectively and efficiently. By the end of this session, you will: 1. Configure bindings for Azure Blob Storage, Table Storage, Queues, Event Grid, and Azure SQL. 2. Understand the differences between input and output bindings and when to use each. 3. Implement advanced scenarios such as parameter binding stored procedures and advanced queue scenarios.
