Azure Cloud EngineerServerless & IntegrationDevOps & IaC
I build serverless integrations, secure APIs and automated infrastructure on Microsoft Azure — event-driven systems that turn hours of manual processing into seconds.
01 About
I’m Anand Vaidya, a Cloud Engineer at FSP Consulting in Vadodara, India. I design and build serverless integrations on Microsoft Azure — Azure Functions, Logic Apps and API Management, secured with OAuth 2.0 and Managed Identities, and shipped through Bicep and Azure DevOps pipelines.
Before FSP, I spent two years at Atharva IT Services building a .NET Core integration layer that connected Shopify, Amazon and Walmart and automated shipping logistics. My work is moving toward platform engineering and cloud architecture: infrastructure defined as code, automated paths to production, and systems that are secure by default.
Compute that scales with demand and down to zero when idle, so traffic bursts don’t mean lost orders or idle cost.
Managed Identities, OAuth 2.0 and RBAC instead of credentials in config files.
Environments declared in Bicep and ARM, versioned and reviewed like application code.
Multi-stage pipelines that build, test, scan and deploy without manual steps.

03 Architecture lab
An illustrative reference architecture for the kind of serverless integration I build. It is based on patterns from my work, not a diagram of a specific production system. Pick a flow or select any service.
Overview
Requests enter through API Management, which authenticates and throttles them. Azure Functions run the business logic and hand long-running workflows to Logic Apps. State lands in Cosmos DB or SQL. Services authenticate with Managed Identity, and everything is provisioned from Bicep through Azure DevOps.
Entry point
Web and mobile apps, marketplaces and carrier systems that send orders, events and webhooks.
In my work: Shopify, Amazon and Walmart order channels; FedEx, DHL and UPS carrier integrations.
Gateway
A single front door for every API: OAuth 2.0 / JWT validation, rate limiting, caching and versioning, so backends stay simple and protected.
In my work: FSP Consulting’s serverless architecture and the carrier & shipping integration layer.
Compute
Event-driven business logic: validate, transform and route each message. Scales out under bursts and to zero when idle.
In my work: order processing, inventory sync and webhook handlers.
Orchestration
Long-running and multi-step workflows with built-in connectors, retries and approvals, kept out of the request path.
In my work: approval flows, cross-system data sync and carrier dispatch.
State
Cosmos DB for high-throughput, low-latency order and inventory state; SQL Server for relational, transactional records.
In my work: real-time e-commerce inventory, ledgers and order history.
Security
Each service gets its own Entra ID identity and least-privilege RBAC role, so nothing needs a stored password or connection string.
In my work: replaced exposed credentials in legacy systems at FSP Consulting.
Infrastructure as code
Every resource on this diagram is declared in Bicep, reviewed in pull requests and deployed identically to each environment.
In my work: the zero-downtime deployment pipeline that cut release time from 2 days to 15 minutes.
Delivery
Multi-stage YAML pipelines: build, test, security scan, provision with Bicep, then promote through environments with approval gates.
In my work: blue-green, zero-downtime releases to Azure.
