ASP.NET Core 5, gRPC, Protobuf, Visual Studio, .NET CLI, Docker, Kubernetes, services meshes, monitoring, distributed tracing

Day 1: Building gRPC applications in ASP.NET Core

Day 2: Security, Deployment and Observability

Service mesh (using Linkerd as an example)

Attendees will be expected to be familiar with .NET and C#, and bring a computer with the latest .NET Core 5 SDK and an IDE (VS2019, VS Code or Rider). For day two a local Docker installation that supports Kubernetes is strongly recommended (e.g. Docker Desktop for Windows or Mac).

2 Days

Modern distributed systems with gRPC in ASP.NET Core 5

.NET

Multi-platform, multi-client, and highly-mobile users bring a new set of challenges, so the approaches of the past are no longer appropriate for modern applications. This two-day workshop is your chance to dive into all things security related to these new technologies. Learn how to securely connect native and browser-based applications to your back-ends and integrate them with enterprise identity management systems as well as social identity providers and services.


.NET Core, ASP.NET Core, MVC, Web APIs, Claims, OpenID Connect, OAuth 2.0, WS-Federation, SAML, JSON Web Tokens, Single Sign-on and off, Federation, Delegation, Home Realm, Discovery, CORS

Social Logins (e.g. Google, Facebook, Twitter, etc.)


Attendees will need to bring a computer with the latest .NET Core SDK and the IDE of your choice (e.g. Visual Studio) installed.

Identity & Access Control for modern Applications and APIs using ASP.NET Core 5

Security

In this tutorial, we will look at why asynchronous messaging is often the preferred solution to the problems of integrating and distributed solution, and look at the implementation of common messaging patterns.

If you have ever been put off moving from RPC-based solutions to messaging because of the need to learn how to implement messaging based solutions, this workshop will get you started. if you have been using messaging but want to gain a firmer understanding

The session will be a hands-on introduction and take you from simple messaging scenarios like "Hello World" through to more complex ideas like routing, brokers, and publish-subscribe.

Day 1: Messaging Architectures and Simple Patterns

Day 2: Distributed Systems Advanced Patterns

There will be hands on coding exercises in .NET and Python enabling you to implement simple and more complex messaging scenarios.


We will use Rabbit MQ for examples. You need not have the latter installed on your machine, but you should have Docker installed on your machine, as exercises will use Docker Compose.This is a Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) course. At BYOD courses delegates are required to bring their own laptop with the necessary software installed

Agile

In this talk, you'll see what it's like to use the latest .NET 5 features to create a Blazor UI, and preview some exciting .NET 6 enhancements we have in the pipeline. You'll see a truly dramatic improvement in the developer experience, some runtime features that enable more robustness and performance than ever before, and helpful tips that can be applied in existing .NET 5-based applications. And of course, it’s demos all the way.

If you're new to Blazor, this will be a great way to get a sense of what it's all about. If you're already a seasoned expert, this is your chance to find out what's coming next.

Only now you are expected to manage people and not just code. What motivated you to improve doesn't seem to always work on your team. So what do you do? We will explore the art of managing talented people and learning what the human needs for guidance and support from their leader.
