Serverless computing enables developers to build applications faster by eliminating the need for them to manage infrastructure. With serverless APIs in the cloud, the cloud service provider automatically provisions, scales, and manages the infrastructure required to run the code.
This article shows with the simple example how to manage Java-based serverless APIs build with Azure functions. It uses azure-functions plugin to integrate Apache APISIX API Gateway with Azure Serverless Function that invokes the HTTP trigger functions and return the response from Azure Cloud.
Apache APISIX offers additional plugins that can be used with other serverless solutions like AWS Lambda.
