Exercise - Publish and subscribe to events in Azure Managed Redis
In this exercise, you deploy an Azure Managed Redis resource and complete a Python Flask web app that publishes and subscribes to Redis channels from a single page. You add code to connect to Redis with Microsoft Entra ID, publish event messages, broadcast to every channel, format received messages, listen for messages on a background thread, and subscribe to channels and patterns. You then run the app and watch messages arrive live as you publish them.
Tasks performed in this exercise:
- Download the project starter files
