Overview of this book

The ASP.NET Core 2.0 Framework has been designed to meet all the needs of today’s web developers. It provides better control, support for test-driven development, and cleaner code. Moreover, it’s lightweight and allows you to run apps on Windows, OSX and Linux, making it the most popular web framework with modern day developers. This book takes a unique approach to web development, using real-world examples to guide you through problems with ASP.NET Core 2.0 web applications. It covers Visual Studio 2017- and ASP.NET Core 2.0-specifc changes and provides general MVC development recipes. It explores setting up .NET Core, Visual Studio 2017, Node.js modules, and NuGet. Next, it shows you how to work with Inversion of Control data pattern and caching. We explore everyday ASP.NET Core MVC 2.0 patterns and go beyond it into troubleshooting. Finally, we lead you through migrating, hosting, and deploying your code. By the end of the book, you’ll not only have explored every aspect of ASP.NET Core MVC 2.0, you’ll also have a reference you can keep coming back to whenever you need to get the job done.

Hosting an ASP.NET Core web app on Azure


Cloud providers make sure that developers can easily scale their applications.

For example, we could have developed a social network application, but we can't be sure how many resources we need.

Mostly, we'll estimate based on the collected sample usage data, educated guesses, and so on.

During the fetching resources phase, we increase the required resources in case of high demand. Of course, increasing resources also increases the cost of owning an application.

The application's usage pattern will never be a flat line, so we never need the same number of resources. The resources needed will vary on a day-to-day, or even; hour-to-hour, basis.

Cloud providers make it easy to have only the required number of resources at that point in time.

This is very economic, and makes sense when we can't estimate the usage of a startup application, for example.

Getting ready

We need an Azure subscription to host an ASP.NET Core web application. We can easily create a subscription...
