Overview of this book

If you want to design and develop enterprise applications using .NET Core as the development framework and learn about industry-wide best practices and guidelines, then this book is for you. The book starts with a brief introduction to enterprise architecture, which will help you to understand what enterprise architecture is and what the key components are. It will then teach you about the types of patterns and the principles of software development, and explain the various aspects of distributed computing to keep your applications effective and scalable. These chapters act as a catalyst to start the practical implementation, and design and develop applications using different architectural approaches, such as layered architecture, service oriented architecture, microservices and cloud-specific solutions. Gradually, you will learn about the different approaches and models of the Security framework and explore various authentication models and authorization techniques, such as social media-based authentication and safe storage using app secrets. By the end of the book, you will get to know the concepts and usage of the emerging fields, such as DevOps, BigData, architectural practices, and Artificial Intelligence.

Structural patterns

These design patterns are best practices to identify a simple way to realize relationships between entities and their structure in a given situation.

Let's jump on to our selective structural patterns individually to look at their detail.

Adapter pattern

The adapter pattern, as the name suggests, is the pattern for a class that adapts the interface of another considerably complicated or inconsistent class. It's basically just a wrapper class. It wraps the interface of another class to an interface that is simpler, consistent to the software design, and is what the client is expecting.

The following diagram shows the adapter pattern in general and the one used for our example:

It is one of the simplest GoF design patterns with the purpose...
