Power Automate

In this newest blog post we'll have a look at Power Automate. Because of the low code / no code nature of the service, it’s a great fit for citizen developers to automate (business) processes. It’s good to also look at these other types of services that expand the Serverless universe.

Azure App Configuration and Azure Functions

Azure App configuration is an amazing service. We were really happy to move our apis to App Configuration in combination with Azure Key Vault references, this meant that we centralized our configuration, removed duplication and pushed all the secrets to Azure Key Vault. Next to that, we have the benefit of all the other features that it's offering, like feature flags.
