This Guide on Amazon RDS for .NET Developers covers everything you need to know to integrate RDS into your .NET applications seamlessly. From choosing the right database engine (like PostgreSQL) to setting up instances, implementing EF Core for CRUD operations, and scaling with read replicas, this guide equips you with the knowledge and skills to build robust, scalable solutions.
Serverless applications have become a key component of modern software solutions. In many of the .NET projects I've worked on, AWS Lambda plays a pivotal role in the overall system architecture. With Terraform being one of the most widely used Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools, mastering how to efficiently deploy .NET Lambda functions to AWS is an essential skill for any developer.
Let's explore the essential AWS services that every .NET developer should know to stay competitive and deliver robust, cloud-native solutions. We'll dive into compute options like EC2, Lambda, and App Runner, storage solutions, databases, and DevOps tools, focusing on how they integrate seamlessly with .NET technologies. By the end, you'll have a clear roadmap for leveraging AWS effectively in your .NET projects in 2025 and beyond. Let's stay updated!
Let’s automate the deployment of a brand-new .NET 9 Web API to Amazon ECS using a GitHub Actions CI/CD pipeline. In this guide, we’ll walk through building a .NET 9 Docker image directly on GitHub, pushing it to Amazon Elastic Container Registry (ECR), creating an ECS task definition, and configuring an ECS service to fetch and deploy the latest Docker image. By the end, your application will be up and running on ECS with a fully automated workflow.
This comprehensive guide, Choosing the Best AWS Compute Service for your .NET Solution, will explore everything you need to know about selecting the right AWS compute option for your .NET applications. From EC2 to Lambda, we'll compare cost, operational overhead, ease of deployment, and more, providing you with the insights needed to make an informed decision. Whether you're new to AWS or looking to deepen your cloud expertise, this guide will equip you with the knowledge and tools necessary to choose the most suitable compute service for your specific .NET project requirements.
Terraform is a powerful tool for automating infrastructure deployment and management across multiple cloud providers. Whether you are new to infrastructure as code or looking to deepen your Terraform expertise, this guide will provide you with the knowledge and skills necessary to effectively manage infrastructure in your projects, regardless of the technology stack you work with.
In this article, we are going to implement Response Caching with MediatR in ASP.NET Core using its awesome Pipeline Behaviours. I have written a couple of articles about MediatR and why it's one of the MUST USE libraries for .NET Developers.
The AWS Message Processing Framework for .NET is a wrapper over the AWS Messaging Services like Amazon SNS, SQS, and Event Bridge that helps reduce a significant amount of boilerplate code needed to interact with these AWS Services, further simplifying the development of messaging in .NET applications. In this article, we will explore this framework, and build sample applications that would use SQS, and SNS.
Learn how to use MediatR Pipeline Behavior to implement Validations with FluentValidation in ASP.NET Core applications. This pattern is extremely powerful when clubbed with IExceptionHandler, and can help you build super clean solutions with an elegant way to handle Validations!
Amazon DynamoDB is the go-to serverless NoSQL Solution from AWS and is very sought-after for building serverless applications on the cloud. Pagination is one feature that helps massively improve your application response times in case you have large volumes of data stored in your database. In this article, we will learn about implementing pagination in Amazon DynamoDB with the .NET AWS SDK!
Multi-thread programming is essential to building high-performance applications, especially those expected to scale. This article will teach us about handling concurrency in Amazon DynamoDB with Optimistic Locking. When multiple threads try to access/modify the same record in DynamoDB, there can be data inconsistencies and conflicts. To combat this, we will implement optimistic locking to ensure your data is not lost or overridden.
Let's build an automated AWS IAM Access Key Rotation Lambda using AWS Lambda, SNS Notifications, and Amazon EventBridge Schedulers. We will be writing the entire AWS Lambda code in C#.
