Kubernetes for .NET Developers ☸️

Have you started building containerized application and struggled with scaling across multiple hosts❓

Would you like to simplify DevOps tasks such as deployment and configuration❓

Have you heard about Kubernetes and would like to learn more❓

Then this presentation is for you. 💎

Kubernetes is an open source system for managing containerized applications across multiple hosts; providing basic mechanisms for deployment, maintenance, and scaling of applications. 🔥

In this presentation, I will walk you through Kubernetes fundamentals, the high level architecture, how would you deploy an ASP.NET Core application to Kubernetes and finally how would you configure and launch auto-scaling, self-healing Kubernetes cluster. ⚡️

Running async tasks on app startup in ASP.NET Core 3.0 ⚡️

In this post, I describe how a small change in the ASP.NET Core 3.0 WebHost makes it easier to run asynchronous tasks on app startup using IHostedService. ✅

Unfortunately, in 2.x it wasn't possible to use any of the built-in ASP.NET Core primitives to achieve this ❌ :

• IStartupFilter has a synchronous API, so would require doing sync over async. 🤦🏻‍♂️

• IApplicationLifetime has a synchronous API and raises the ApplicationStarted event after the server starts handling requests. 🤷🏻‍♂️

• IHostedService has an asynchronous API, but is executed after the server is started and starts handling requests. 👍🏻

With ASP.NET Core 3.0, a small change in the WebHost code makes a big difference - we no longer need these solutions, and can use IHostedService without the previous concerns❗️
