In this blog post, we will show how to create a simple image processing application where we upload to cloud data storage a picture that will trigger logic that will process the picture and return to the storage resized image with round corners and some additional logo. We will create and debug Azure Function on macOS (but you can follow the example on any platform), data will be stored on Azure Storage and the final product will be hosted on Azure inside of a Function App.

We have also mentioned that we could use a WebJobs for Queue processing or File maintenance operations.

Unfortunately, if you think about the Azure as a “Platform as a Service” then I have a bad news for you because SQL Jobs and Windows Services aren’t supported under this setup.
