Designing cloud solutions feels very easy, a few clicks on the Azure portal and you can have a running application in cloud on no time. Perhaps it is too easy and, in the rush, we tend to forget the quality of the solution. Workloads on clouds are essentially distributed systems and subject to the vagaries of cloud such as transient faults or unexpected events. Your solution must survive in this environment.
In this workshop, we will build a cloud solution using .Net Core 3.1 in C# that demonstrates the design patterns for a well-architected Azure application. We will code microservices applications using Azure Serverless and PAAS services as listed below.
This is a developer-focused workshop and will exclude IAAS solutions including VMs and AKS. Specifically, we will cover how to use Azure PAAS and Serverless services to build highly available, cost-effective, enterprise-quality applications.
At the end of the workshop, you will learn some patterns, guardrails, technology choices, and best practices for building Azure cloud applications:
