Modern applications need to do more than respond to requests. They must react to business events, scale reliably, recover from failure, and increasingly use AI to understand what is happening and decide what should happen next.

Build Event-Driven Systems with Microsoft AI is a practical guide to building cloud-native, intelligent applications on Microsoft Azure. Through Food Zing, a real-world food delivery application built throughout the book, you will see how a traditional application evolves into a secure, resilient, event-driven, and AI-powered platform.

From Azure messaging and reliable event processing to recommendations, anomaly detection, Azure AI Foundry, agents, and RAG, the book connects architecture concepts to working business scenarios rather than isolated technology demos.

What You Will Learn

• Design event-driven workflows using Azure Service Bus, Event Hubs, APIs, Functions, and background workers.
• Build secure and reliable systems with JWT, Azure Key Vault, retries, dead-letter queues, and idempotency.
• Turn business actions such as orders, payments, registrations, and anomalies into meaningful domain events.
• Add intelligent capabilities including recommendations, voice interaction, anomaly detection, and AI-assisted fraud review.
• Build with Azure AI Foundry, RAG, AI agents, tools, function calling, and MCP.
• Design AI features that are grounded, observable, resilient, and human-guided for real production workflows.

Who This Book Is For

This book is for developers, cloud engineers, solution architects, and technical leaders who want to move beyond traditional APIs and learn how Azure event-driven architecture and Microsoft AI can work together in real-world applications.

Sourabh Mishra is a technology enthusiast, entrepreneur, solution architect, developer, author, speaker, trainer, and lifelong learner who has spent more than two decades exploring the world of software and technology. His journey began at the age of 15, driven by a simple fascination with computers that gradually turned into a lifelong passion for building software and solving complex technology problems. Over the years, Sourabh has evolved from a passionate developer into a technology leader, working across .NET, C#, ASP.NET, SQL Server, Entity Framework, MVC, Web API, Angular, Microsoft Azure, DevOps, Kubernetes, and cloud-native technologies. More recently, his interests have expanded into Artificial Intelligence, Azure AI, Generative AI, and modern application architecture.

A proud member of the Microsoft technology ecosystem and a true .NET Warrior at heart, Sourabh has always believed that technology is most valuable when it can be understood, applied, and shared. His passion for learning and teaching has led him to contribute to technical communities, mentor professionals, deliver corporate training, speak at technology events, and help developers navigate rapidly evolving technologies.

Sourabh has also been recognized with the prestigious Most Valuable Professional (MVP) award for his contributions to the technology community.

Beyond his professional work, Sourabh is the founder of IECE Digital, a knowledge-sharing platforms created with a simple philosophy: technology should not feel complicated when it is explained the right way. Through these platforms, he shares practical insights, tutorials, and learning resources designed to make modern technology easier to understand and apply.

For Sourabh, being a technologist is not simply about knowing the latest technology. It is about continuous learning, building, experimenting, and helping others grow along the way.
