Apply design patterns to solve problems in software architecture and programming using C# 7.x and .NET Core 2 Key Features Enhance your programming skills by implementing efficient design patterns for C# and .NET Explore design patterns for functional and reactive programming to build robust and scalable applications Discover how to work effectively with microservice and serverless architectures Book DescriptionDesign patterns are essentially reusable solutions to common programming problems. When used correctly, they meet crucial software requirements with ease and reduce costs. This book will uncover effective ways to use design patterns and demonstrate their implementation with executable code specific to both C# and .NET Core. Hands-On Design Patterns with C# and .NET Core begins with an overview of object-oriented programming (OOP) and SOLID principles. It provides an in-depth explanation of the Gang of Four (GoF) design patterns such as creational, structural, and behavioral. The book then takes you through functional, reactive, and concurrent patterns, helping you write better code with streams, threads, and coroutines. Toward the end of the book, you'll learn about the latest trends in architecture, exploring design patterns for microservices, serverless, and cloud native applications. You'll even understand the considerations that need to be taken into account when choosing between different architectures such as microservices and MVC. By the end of the book, you will be able to write efficient and clear code and be comfortable working on scalable and maintainable projects of any size. What you will learn Make your code more flexible by applying SOLID principles Follow the Test-driven development (TDD) approach in your .NET Core projects Get to grips with efficient database migration, data persistence, and testing techniques Convert a console application to a web application using the right MVP Write asynchronous, multithreaded, and parallel code Implement MVVM and work with RxJS and AngularJS to deal with changes in databases Explore the features of microservices, serverless programming, and cloud computing Who this book is forIf you have a basic understanding of C# and the .NET Core framework, this book will help you write code that is easy to reuse and maintain with the help of proven design patterns that you can implement in your code.

Use this collection of best practices and tips for assessing the health of a solution. This book provides detailed techniques and instructions to quickly diagnose aspects of your Azure cloud solutions. The initial chapters of this book introduce you to the many facets of Microsoft Azure, explain why and how building for the cloud differs from on-premise development, and outline the need for a comprehensive strategy to debugging and profiling in Azure. You learn the major types of blades (FaaS, SaaS, PaaS, IaaS), how different views can be created for different scenarios, and you will become familiar with the Favorites section, Cost Management & Billing blade, support, and Cloud Shell. You also will know how to leverage Application Insights for application performance management, in order to achieve a seamless cloud development experience. Application Insights, Log Analytics, and database storage topics are covered. The authors further guide you on identity security with Azure AD and continuous delivery with CI and CD covered in detail along with the capabilities of Azure DevOps. And you are exposed to external tooling and trouble shooting in a production environment. After reading this book, you will be able to apply methods to key Azure services, including App Service (Web Apps, Function Apps, and Logic Apps), Cloud Services, Azure Container Service, Azure Active Directory, Azure Storage, Azure SQL Database, Cosmos DB, Log Analytics, and many more. What You Will Learn Debug and manage the performance of your applications Leverage Application Insights for application performance management Extend and automate CI/CD with the help of various build tools, including Azure DevOps, TeamCity, and Cake bootstrapper Who This Book Is For Application developers, designers, and DevOps personnel who want to find a one-stop shop in best practices for managing their application's performance in the cloud and for debugging the issues accordingly
