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.

Summary

In this chapter, we have learned about resiliency, which is a very important factor when developing highly performant applications in .NET Core. We learned about different policies and used the Polly framework to use those policies in .NET Core. We also learned about safe storage mechanisms and how to use them in a development environment in order to keep sensitive information separate from the project repository. At the end of this chapter, we learned about some core fundamentals, which included SSL, CSRF, CORS, enabling security headers, and the ASP.NET Core Identity framework to protect ASP.NET Core applications.

In the next chapter, we will learn about some key metrics and necessary tools to monitor the performance of .NET Core applications.
