New version of Durable Functions available now
Published date: November 05, 2019
Announcing the general availability of the version 2.0 of Durable Functions, the extension of the Azure Functions runtime that enables stateful functions and workflow orchestrations in a serverless environment. This latest major release includes the following capabilities, supporting both C# and JavaScript:
- Durable entities brings an actor-like programming model to Azure Functions that provides the ability to build highly concurrent, stateful, serverless applications.
- In Durable Functions orchestrations, it is common to call a separate activity function that makes an HTTP request and returns its result. Now orchestrators can natively consume HTTP APIs using the orchestration trigger binding.
