    Cloud and Networking for .NET: all courses in this track

    Guided course · Cloud and Networking for .NET

    Cloud-Native .NET

    Build, ship and run .NET services the cloud-native way: twelve-factor configuration and secrets with Key Vault and workload identity, container images without a Dockerfile, liveness, readiness and startup health checks, OpenTelemetry traces, metrics and logs, .NET Aspire from the AppHost model to a Helm chart, Kubernetes and AKS essentials (Deployments, Services, Gateway API, HPA, KEDA), zero-downtime deploys with graceful shutdown and expand/contract migrations, CI/CD with GitHub Actions and Azure Pipelines using OIDC, and how the .NET runtime sizes itself under container limits. Every .NET example runs on .NET 10 with real output; Kubernetes manifests and pipelines are validated with yamllint, kubeconform, helm and actionlint. 13 lessons including a practice set and a 25-question mock interview.
