Overview of this book

Software Architecture with C# 12 and .NET 8 puts high-level design theory to work in a .NET context, teaching you the key skills, technologies, and best practices required to become an effective .NET software architect. This fourth edition puts emphasis on a case study that will bring your skills to life. You’ll learn how to choose between different architectures and technologies at each level of the stack. You’ll take an even closer look at Blazor and explore OpenTelemetry for observability, as well as a more practical dive into preparing .NET microservices for Kubernetes integration. Divided into three parts, this book starts with the fundamentals of software architecture, covering C# best practices, software domains, design patterns, DevOps principles for CI/CD, and more. The second part focuses on the technologies, from choosing data storage in the cloud to implementing frontend microservices and working with Serverless. You’ll learn about the main communication technologies used in microservices, such as REST API, gRPC, Azure Service Bus, and RabbitMQ. The final part takes you through a real-world case study where you’ll create software architecture for a travel agency. By the end of this book, you will be able to transform user requirements into technical needs and deliver highly scalable enterprise software architectures.

Defining the application layer

The application layer contains the definition of all business operations. These business operations use data provided by the user to modify domain layer abstraction aggregates, such as touristic packages. When all business operations involved in the current user request have been performed, an IUnitOfWork.SaveEntitiesAsync() operation is performed to save all changes to the database.

As a first step, for simplicity, let’s freeze the application culture to en-US by adding the following code to the ASP.NET Core pipeline:

app.UseAuthorization();
// Code to add: configure the Localization middleware
var ci = new CultureInfo("en-US");
app.UseRequestLocalization(new RequestLocalizationOptions
{
    DefaultRequestCulture = new RequestCulture(ci),
    SupportedCultures = new List<CultureInfo>
    {
        ci,
    },
     SupportedUICultures = new List<CultureInfo>
    {
        ci,
    }
});

As a second step, we can...
