Azureflows

Azureflows is a conceptual framework for designing and implementing cloud-native applications, primarily within the Microsoft Azure ecosystem. It emphasizes a modular, event-driven architecture, aiming to simplify the development and management of complex distributed systems. The core idea behind Azureflows is to break down applications into smaller, independent services that communicate asynchronously through events. This approach promotes scalability, resilience, and agility, allowing for easier updates and deployments of individual components without impacting the entire system.

Key principles of Azureflows often involve leveraging managed Azure services such as Azure Functions for serverless compute, Azure Event Hubs or Azure Service Bus for messaging, and Azure Cosmos DB or Azure SQL Database for data storage. The framework encourages the use of declarative programming patterns and infrastructure as code to define and manage application resources. By abstracting away much of the underlying infrastructure complexity, Azureflows aims to enable developers to focus more on business logic and less on operational concerns. While not a formal product, Azureflows represents a set of best practices and architectural patterns that guide the creation of robust and scalable cloud solutions on Azure.
