You want to go Serverless. You think Azure functions are cool, but you're not sure how to use them. You also have put something out there but you don't know how to secure it. Another problem you've encountered is the fact that your users don't like having “all of those links and keys”. What do you do?

In this session, we'll see a practical approach for all of this using Azure Functions and APIM, and we'll see how to lock everything down with Azure Active Directory and Identity management, and we'll see how to use APIM Subscriptions to get the right information to the correct users with just one entry point facade, regardless of how many different back-end operations we are leveraging.
