Azure Logic App - Adding comment(s) is one of the best practices.

#cloud #azure #logicapp

Hi All!

As a azure developer and/or administrator, we need to work on new and/or existing Logic App(s). If it is new, we are happy to start from the scratch.

Consider a scenario that you deployed into a team where you have 15+ logic apps in each environment like Dev, UAT and Prod. Before work on those Logic apps, we need to study the workflow (trigger and actions).

Existing Logic App UI will not tell you the action type. To know the action type, one way is that you have to go to Logic app code view which is a JSON representation of the workflow where you can find the type of all actions.

Even though we can see the type(s) from JSON as stated above, we could not know the intention or business purpose of that action.

Here we can add comments on each action which is missed most of the time. Let's see how we can add comment on each action in Logic app. So that, when others work onlogic apps, they understand it easily.

Please look into the below image.

I have trigger in logic app that when a service bus received message, this logic app starts but If we know from where and how this service bus receive message, we can talk to the concern team to discuss some more details.

So I add a comment that the service bus receives message in queue from Order shipping web application. So now, If we get any escalation or issue from customer regarding this logic app and data received at service bus, we can discuss with the order shipping web app developer / azure developer or development team.

Azure Public IP(s) are zone redundant free of cost natively - Generally Available Availability zone gives high availability to an application as well as information by forestalling the physical datacenter disappointments by involving replication of the asset in extra datacenter. Azure typically has 3 zones per region (and not all regions support zone). Thus, while setting up the environment we really want to pick the right region based on our usecase. Public IP helps to access a resource or an application publicly. Azure offers 2 types of SKU for public IP as below Basic Standard Only Standard SKU gives zone facility. Basic SKU is always non-zonal and this SKU also will be retired 09/2025. Standard public IP can be fell into any of the below category No Zone / Non-Zonal - No availability zone at all Zonal - Our services can be replicated in any one of selected zones from three zones. Zone redundant - Resource will be replicated in all 3 zones. It is opposite of...
create and read a file in Linux As a cloud and Devops engineers, we need to know to work with Linux is always helpful to handle some critical situations. There are multiple ways to create and read a file in Linux. In this article we're going to learn about touch command. Let's work with followings in this article pwd - To show present working directory touch - To create an empty file ls - To list the files from the current directory echo - To display message as well as write into a file. '>' - write into a file. '>>' - append it to a file cat - To read content of file we'll see writing and appending into a file in my upcoming post.
𝗚𝗹𝗶𝗺𝗽𝘀𝗲 - 𝗔𝘇𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗱𝗶𝘀𝗸 𝘂𝘀𝗲 𝗰𝗮𝘀𝗲𝘀 Hi Present days, Container based services/applications are growing than applications running from virtual machines. Even though container services evolving IT apps landscape, we could not boycott VM usage. Azure VM also requires and plays vital role for some scenarios. In this post, we are going to see just glimpse of azure disks of VM. This post is not about standard vs premium disk use case FYI. Azure VM can run with OS disk but it is not good practice. There are three types of disks. OS disk Data disk Ephemeral disk We need to know when to use what then only we can avoid performance bottleneck. 𝗗𝗮𝘁𝗮 𝗗𝗶𝘀𝗸 - If we install applications as well in OS disk, we could face performance issue. It is best to use OS disk to have OS infos and booting. The benefilt of Data disk is Easy maintanence Backup and disaster recovery Performance isolation (as it is far from OS acti...
