Description

Azure Functions triggers and bindings enable you to easily integrate event and data sources with function applications. This feature enables you to use types from service SDKs and frameworks, providing more capability beyond what is currently offered.   

 

Azure Blob Storage:
SDK type bindings for Azure Blob Storage enable the following key scenarios:  

  • Downloading and uploading blobs of large sizes, reducing current memory limitations and GRPC limits.  
  • Enabling advanced operations including partial reads, parallel uploads, and direct property manipulations. 
  • Improved performance by using blobs with Azure Functions  

 

Details: SDK type bindings for Azure Blob Storage in Java. 

 

Azure Service Bus: 

You can now interact with the ServiceBusReceivedMessage type from the SDK, offering more advanced functionality compared to the previous ServiceBusMessage type. 

 

Details: SDK type bindings for Service Bus in Python. 


Azure Cosmos DB: 

SDK type bindings for Azure Cosmos DB enable the following key scenarios:   

  • Interacting with Cosmos DB instances seamlessly (databases, containers, and documents), reducing current memory limitations and GRPC limits.   
  • Improved performance by using Cosmos DB with Azure Functions   

  

Details: SDK type bindings for Cosmos DB in Python. 


Azure Event Hubs: 

Azure Event Hubs SDK type bindings enable you to use types from service SDKs and frameworks, providing more capability beyond what is currently offered.   

 

Details: SDK type bindings for Event Hubs in Python.
