This is the source code for the middleware of the EPICOM App, an app where you can check the current Corona infection rate at your location or in another area. It's kind of your "compass" for the pandemic. EPICOM warns you if you are approaching a risk area with a higher infection rate than that at your current location or if you were recently in a location that has meanwhile become a risk area. You can track your own movement profile of the last 14 days in the app and recognise when you have been in one place where for more than 15 minutes. Contacts with a risk of infection are so easy for you to reconstruct. EPICOM also has links to all official websites of state governments, municipalities and districts with codes of conduct and official instructions regarding Corona. In this way, you will receive the most important information you need for your self and to protect your environment. For more information about the app please go to https://www.epicom.online

This middleware consists of an Azure Function with two timer triggers and a Azure CDN with Azure Blob Storage as a source for the app data files.
- Daily: Triggers once a day (configured in Azure Function App Configuration section).
- Hourly: Triggers once every full hour (configured in Azure Function App Configuration section).
- The transformed data will be stored in the blob storage that is used by the CDN to make the data public for the apps.
