When implementing modern application integration solutions, we rely on platforms that abstract many of the challenges inherent to these types of solutions. While the Enterprise Integration Patterns previously covered in this series describe architectural and implementation patterns, the Platform Management patterns...

Message Transformation: Enterprise Integration Patterns on Azure Integration Services
Azure Functions, Enterprise Integration Patterns, Logic Apps, Service Bus, Azure Event Grid
It is quite common that integration solutions interact with diverse applications, each with disparate data models and heterogeneous formats. In this post, we will discuss the Message Transformation patterns and how these can be implemented on Azure to overcome the challenges derived from working with different...
Message Routing: Enterprise Integration Patterns on Azure Integration Services
Azure Functions, Enterprise Integration Patterns, Logic Apps, Service Bus, Azure Event Grid
In the previous post of the series on the Enterprise Integration Patterns on Azure, I explored the Messaging Endpoint patterns, which abstract integration interfaces from the application internals when building messaging-based integration solutions. In this post, I will cover the Message Routing patterns on Azure,...
Messaging Endpoints: Enterprise Integration Patterns on Azure Integration Services
Azure Functions, Enterprise Integration Patterns, Logic Apps, Service Bus, Azure Event Grid, Azure Integration Services
In the previous post of the series, I described how messages can be transmitted from a sender application to intended receiver applications through Messaging Channels, and how the Azure Integration Services can be leveraged to implement these Enterprise Integration Patterns. Messaging Endpoints are the application...
Messaging Channels: Enterprise Integration Patterns on Azure Integration Services
Azure Functions, Enterprise Integration Patterns, Logic Apps, Service Bus, Azure Event Grid, messaging, Azure Integration Services
In the previous post of the series, I covered how application data are to be serialised and packaged into messages so they can be transmitted between applications. In this post, I’ll describe the Messaging Channels patterns, which focus on solving the challenges of transmitting messages from a sender application to...
Message Construction: Enterprise Integration Patterns on Azure Integration Services
Azure Functions, Enterprise Integration Patterns, Logic Apps, Service Bus, Azure Event Grid, Azure iPaaS
When we are designing a message-based integration solution, one of the first things we need to define is how the application data are going to be serialised into messages, so they can be transmitted to other applications. The Message Construction Enterprise Integration Patterns provide documented knowledge that can...
Azure Integration Platform as a Service (iPaaS) – Logic Apps and the Azure Integration Services
Azure API Management, Azure Functions, iPaaS, Logic Apps, Service Bus, Blog, Vision & Digital Transformation, Technology
Introduction
A year ago, I wrote a post about this very same topic, the Microsoft Azure Integration Platform as a Service (iPaaS). At that time, the core iPaaS product offering, Azure Logic Apps, was roughly 6 months old, since it’s generally available launch. Since the launch date, we’ve seen an impressive release...
List of Access Keys from Output Values after ARM Template Deployment
Azure Functions, Logic Apps, Service Bus, ARM Templates, Application Insights, Cosmos DB, Storage Account, Blog, Technology
There are many cases that we need to retrieve access keys and/or endpoints of Azure resources, as soon as they are deployed through ARM templates. Typical uses cases are:
- To display those values in the
outputs
section of ARM templates, - To get a reference to the
outputs
section of nested ARM templates from their...
Logic Apps: Correlation and Message Dependency Management on Logic Apps with Service Bus
Azure, Logic Apps, Service Bus, Dependency Management, Correlation
While working on an integration project, we came across a very interesting requirement of sequencing file fed to a system based on pre-defined dependencies. This problem was complex because the target system did not want to see a file in S3 bucket (or blob container) unless the system has already processed and...
Serverless Logging & Alerting with Service Fabric & Azure Event Grid
Azure, Azure Functions, Logic Apps, Service Bus, Event Grid, Serverless
Microsoft recently released the public preview of Azure Event Grid – a hyper-scalable serverless platform for routing events with intelligent filtering. No more polling for events - Event Grid is a reactive programming platform for pushing events out to interested subscribers. This is an extremely significant...
