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.

Microservices architecture

Microservices architecture is an architectural style in which the application is loosely coupled; it is divided into components based on business capability or domain, and scales independently without affecting other services or components of the application. This contrasts with the monolithic architecture, where a full application is deployed on a server or a Virtual Machine (VM) and scaling out is not a cost-effective or easy solution. For each scale-out operation, a new VM instance has to be cloned and the application needs to be deployed.

The following diagram shows the architecture of a monolithic application, where most of the functionality is isolated within a single process and scaling out to multiple servers requires the full deployment of the application on the other server:

The following is a representation of microservices architecture,...
