Software Architecture with C# 12 and .NET 8

A book for the aspiring .NET software architect - design scalable and high-performance enterprise solutions using the latest features of C# 12 and .NET 8Purchase of the print or Kindle book includes a free PDF eBookKey FeaturesGet introduced to software architecture fundamentals and begin applying them in .NETExplore the main technologies used by software architects and choose the best ones for your needsMaster new developments in .NET with the help of a practical case study that looks at software architecture for a travel agencyBook DescriptionSoftware Architecture with C# 12 and .NET 8 puts high-level design theory to work in a .NET context, teaching you the key skills, technologies, and best practices required to become an effective .NET software architect. This fourth edition puts emphasis on a case study that will bring your skills to life. You ll learn how to choose between different architectures and technologies at each level of the stack. You ll take an even closer look at Blazor and explore OpenTelemetry for observability, as well as a more practical dive into preparing .NET microservices for Kubernetes integration. Divided into three parts, this book starts with the fundamentals of software architecture, covering C# best practices, software domains, design patterns, DevOps principles for CI/CD, and more. The second part focuses on the technologies, from choosing data storage in the cloud to implementing frontend microservices and working with Serverless. You ll learn about the main communication technologies used in microservices, such as REST API, gRPC, Azure Service Bus, and RabbitMQ. The final part takes you through a real-world case study where you ll create software architecture for a travel agency. By the end of this book, you will be able to transform user requirements into technical needs and deliver highly scalable enterprise software architectures.What you will learnProgram and maintain Azure DevOps and explore GitHub ProjectsManage software requirements to design functional and non-functional needsApply architectural approaches such as layered architecture and domain-driven designMake effective choices between cloud-based and data storage solutionsImplement resilient frontend microservices, worker microservices, and distributed transactionsUnderstand when to use test-driven development (TDD) and alternative approachesChoose the best option for cloud development, from IaaS to ServerlessWho this book is forThis book is for engineers and senior software developers aspiring to become architects or looking to build enterprise applications with the .NET stack.
