Adopt a modern approach to building distributed applications
Developing distributed applications in a cloud environment requires more than just programming skills. It involves a deep understanding of infrastructure, resilience, performance, and observability. That’s exactly what this .NET Aspire training offers.
.NET Aspire is a stack designed to simplify the creation of cloud-native applications. It provides a structured framework, powerful tools, and efficient orchestration. This course guides you through assembling the different components of a distributed application and managing their communication smoothly and effectively.
Optimize your projects with a strong technical foundation
From the very first lessons, you’ll learn how to build a solid architecture using the foundations of .NET Aspire. You’re not just assembling software pieces—you understand them and tailor them to your project needs. The environment is built for the cloud but also optimized for developer productivity.
You’ll learn how to build flexible and maintainable solutions. Aspire’s modular approach helps you gain clarity and limit dependencies between services. Thanks to Visual Studio or Visual Studio Code, you can develop faster while keeping full control over your application’s structure.
Improve observability with an effective telemetry strategy
Observability is a critical element of modern architecture. It helps detect anomalies, anticipate failures, and optimize user experience. In this training, you’ll implement telemetry solutions using the APIs built into .NET Aspire.
You’ll also explore the integration of OpenTelemetry, an open standard for centralizing logs, metrics, and traces. It enables you to trace each request across different services and quickly identify friction points.
Manage data with flexibility and performance
Modern applications need to interact with various storage systems. This course helps you choose between relational and NoSQL databases based on your use cases. You’ll learn how to configure secure connections, use external services, and organize your data to get the most value from it.
In parallel, you’ll build skills to test your integrations, ensure data reliability, and manage load balancing or recovery scenarios.
Boost performance with Redis caching
Good cache management can significantly improve an application’s performance. In this training, you’ll learn how to integrate Redis natively into your Aspire projects. You’ll implement distributed caches for critical data and output caches to reduce response times.
You’ll also understand how to adjust cache configurations based on your project’s structure by editing Aspire manifests for specific needs.
Implement asynchronous communication with RabbitMQ
To ensure scalability and resilience, service communication must be designed from the ground up. RabbitMQ enables you to set up message queues between your microservices. Each service can then run independently while maintaining reliable communication.
This training shows you how to configure queues, handle messages, and design an event-driven architecture. It’s a powerful way to increase the overall robustness of your applications.
