Developing Microservice-based AspNetCore Applications for Azure

Microservices deployments with ASP.NET Core require careful planning. This session offers practical guidance for building and deploying robust microservice solutions. Learn essential tips for every stage of the development lifecycle – from design and development to testing, deployment, and production.

Here's a breakdown of key topics:

• Instrumentation: Implement effective monitoring and logging for your microservices to gain valuable insights into performance and health.
• Configuration: Master configuration management strategies for managing settings across your microservices and environments.
• Docker Secrets: Securely manage sensitive information like passwords and API keys using Docker secrets.
• Local Development with Docker: Boost your development productivity with efficient Docker workflows for local testing.
• Azure Deployment: Deploy your ASP.NET Core microservices to Azure using powerful services:
  • Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS): Leverage AKS for scalable and resilient container orchestration.
  • Azure Container Registry: Securely store and manage your Docker images.
• CI/CD Automation: Automate your build, test, and deployment pipelines with VSTS (now Azure DevOps) for continuous integration and continuous delivery.
• Azure Key Vault: Protect your secrets and cryptographic keys using Azure Key Vault, ensuring secure access to sensitive data.

Optimize your ASP.NET Core microservices for production success with these proven strategies.
