This week, I had the opportunity to speak at NDC Oslo. The talk I did was “Indexing and searching NuGet.org with Azure Functions and Search”, which covers a story of re-building an existing service using a serverless approach, on Azure Functions.
As promised, here are the slides as well as the recording.
Indexing and searching NuGet.org with Azure Functions and Search
Session abstract
Which NuGet package was that type in again? In this session, let’s build a “reverse package search” that helps finding the correct NuGet package based on a public type.
Together, we will create a highly-scalable serverless search engine using Azure Functions and Azure Search that performs 3 tasks: listening for new packages on NuGet.org (using a custom binding), indexing packages in a distributed way, and exposing an API that accepts queries and gives our clients the best result.
