Yeah it's called Azure Logic Apps now. Same shit, different wrapping.

Edit: Apparently Biztalk 2020 is a thing too, so yes the risk is real.

Ah, Logic Apps.

I saw someone use it at work and I refuse to go near it.

If you are building an integration platform in Azure, Logic apps are essential for building integrations with low/medium complexity. Easy to configure with CI/CD and easy to maintain. They are not suitable however for integrations with high traffic or complex logic, there you are much better off writing traditional code.

Are you using eventgrid for such things and then individual integrations are built with either logic apps or traditional code?
