Explanation

Orchestrator function - describes a workflow that orchestrates other functions. Entity functions define operations for reading and updating small pieces of state, known as durable entities (Entity functions and related functionality are only available in Durable Functions 2.0 and above.) They are currently supported in .NET, JavaScript, and Python, but not in PowerShell or Java. Activity function - called by the orchestrator function, performs work, and optionally returns a Client function - a regular Azure Function that starts an orchestrator function. This example uses an HTTP triggered function. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-functions/durable/durable-functions-types-features-
