C# 7 and .NET Core 2.0 High Performance

By: Ovais Mehboob Ahmed Khan

Overview of this book

While writing an application, performance is paramount. Performance tuning for realworld applications often involves activities geared toward fnding bottlenecks; however, this cannot solve the dreaded problem of slower code. If you want to improve the speed of your code and optimize an application's performance, then this book is for you. C# 7 and .NET Core 2.0 High Performance begins with an introduction to the new features of what?explaining how they help in improving an application's performance. Learn to identify the bottlenecks in writing programs and highlight common performance pitfalls, and learn strategies to detect and resolve these issues early. You will explore multithreading and asynchronous programming with .NET Core and learn the importance and effcient use of data structures. This is followed with memory management techniques and design guidelines to increase an application’s performance. Gradually, the book will show you the importance of microservices architecture for building highly performant applications and implementing resiliency and security in .NET Core. After reading this book, you will learn how to structure and build scalable, optimized, and robust applications in C#7 and .NET.

Designing Guidelines for .NET Core Application Performance

Securing and Implementing Resilience in .NET Core Applications

Security and resilience are two important aspects that should be considered when developing applications of any scale. Security protects an application's secrets, performs authentication, and provides authorized access to secure content, whereas resiliency embraces the application if it fails so that it can degrade gracefully. Resiliency makes an application highly available and allows the application to function properly at the time when an error occurs or when it is in a faulty state. It is widely used with the microservices architecture, where an application is decomposed into multiple services and each service communicates with other services to perform an operation.

There are various techniques and libraries available in .NET Core that we can use to implement security and resiliency. In ASP.NET Core applications...
