This edition has been updated to reflect the latest cloud and .NET features. The book includes an introduction to artificial intelligence and machine learning, native clients -- including a short review of .NET MAUI -- a new chapter explaining in detail how to implement a worker microservice with ASP.NET and gRPC, along with .NET-hosted services and RabbitMQ, and a new chapter dedicated to the ASP.NET core implementation of frontend microservices.
What’s new?
This is not just another book on language features -- it focuses on how to use .NET and Azure cloud in the implementation of enterprise and microservices-based applications. The book mainly describes .NET and Azure frameworks and tools, how to architect and organize your application with them, and the best practices for doing so. This book aims to deliver good material to developers who intend to evolve their career as software architects, or even to software architects who want to understand the opportunities that C#10, .NET 6, and Azure provide to enable them to develop a good enterprise system.
As a software architect, you need to get in touch with many different technologies to provide the optimal solution for problems. This book helps you do just that by discussing a variety of subjects.
You’ll find that C#10 and .NET 6 have been used in many ways in this book, from simple console applications to implementations using ML.NET, to processing machine learning and presenting best practices in coding. You will find them in web applications, serverless applications with Azure Functions, as microservices running at Azure Kubernetes Service, and as frontend applications with .NET MAUI.
As the main focus of the book is microservices and enterprise applications, the primary focus is on server-side tools such as ASP.NET and Entity Framework and Azure PaaS services. However, the book also describes frontend frameworks like ASP.NET MVC and Blazor, and explains how to use them in enterprise applications and microservices architectures. After reading this book, you’ll be able to architect and design state-of-the-art enterprise applications based on .NET and Azure cloud, whether it relies on microservices or not.
