VSLive! 2-Day Training Seminar: Building Cloud-Ready, Resilient Systems in .NET
June 4-5, 2024
9:00AM – 5:00PM (Central)
Level: Intermediate

You may think that your application is already cloud-ready, it's deployed in the cloud, isn't it?! But in truth, if your application is hard to monitor/scale/release/maintain, lacks resiliency, and is poorly structured, then it's not "cloud-ready".

So, what does "cloud-ready" actually mean? A “cloud ready” application is a legacy software application that has been modified to run on cloud computing infrastructure. Whether you are looking at a modular monolith or a full-blown distributed system, building a cloud-ready, resilient application is a must.

In this 2-day seminar, we will look at the requirements for Tacky Tacos. A fictional taco business that's thriving and wishes to expand. We'll look at all the different requirements that need to be met, starting with a code kata and how we can apply various design patterns to our way of thinking. We'll then move on to building out a functioning, all-be-it, contrived modular monolith using .NET 8 and C#, learning as we go.

By the end of this course, you will have a greater understanding of what it means to design and implement cloud-ready systems using modern .NET tools and C#. You will also understand how to architect and implement a distribution-ready Modular Monolith. The major topics covered in the course are the following:

  • A comparison between Modular Monolith, Microservices, and Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA)
  • An overview of cloud-ready Solution Architecture, including Event-Driven, Modular Monolith, and Distributed
  • Distribution and Modularisation and the relationship between them
  • Common design patterns, including messaging, mediator, SOLID
  • Modelling requirements collaboratively in teams
  • .NET 8 application development recap
  • Data handling, including relational and non-relational data-stores
  • Synchronous communication, including REST, gRPC, SignalR
  • Asynchronous communication using message brokers
  • .NET Aspire, an opinionated stack that enables developers and teams to build, provision, deploy, configure, test, run, and observe cloud applications easily

In short, if you are considering embarking on redeveloping an existing application or even moving towards a distributed architecture to increase the scalability, maintainability, resiliency, etc. of your application, then this is for you. This in-depth seminar will teach you the steps and design principles to set you on the right path to building modern, cloud-ready applications in .NET and C#.
