Packt Publishing
Software architecture is the practice of implementing structures and systems that streamline the software development process and improve the quality of an app. This fully revised and expanded third edition, featuring the latest features of .NET 6 and C# 10, enables you to acquire the key skills, knowledge, and best practices required to become an effective software architect.
Software Architecture with C# 10 and .NET 6, Third Edition features new chapters that describe the importance of the software architect, microservices with ASP.NET Core, and analyzing the architectural aspects of the front-end in the applications, including the new approach of .NET MAUI. It also includes a new chapter focused on providing a short introduction to artificial intelligence and machine learning using ML.NET, and updated chapters on Azure Kubernetes Service, EF Core, and Blazor.
You will begin by understanding how to transform user requirements into architectural needs and exploring the differences between functional and non-functional requirements. Next, you will explore how to choose a cloud solution for your infrastructure, taking into account the factors that will help you manage a cloud-based app successfully. Finally, you will analyze and implement software design patterns that will allow you to solve common development problems.
By the end of this book, you will be able to build and deliver highly scalable enterprise-ready apps that meet your business requirements.
Review
"This is a great introductory book if youre planning to move into the Software Architect role. It takes you through the process from planning to delivery with a fictional use case to illustrate each part of the process, not just in theory but also with practical code examples and plenty of guides on how to implement them in Azure, .Net 6, and C# 10. It is very well-written and easy to understand you can read it from cover to cover, or just the chapters youre interested in because in cases where previous chapters are needed, the authors refer to those on the first page of the chapter. I recommend not only reading this book but also keeping it close for reference. Its definitely a great book to have around should you want to make informed decisions based on factual information and using the best practices in the industry."

"If you are looking to understand what all the parts of .NET are, how they interact and work together, and how you can build solid professional programs with them, then this is the perfect book for you. Further, no matter how much you already know, I'd wager you'll learn some new things here. I have spent some time with this book, and will spend more. There are nooks and crannies of .NET that I'm interested in learning about, and keeping up with everything can be a full-time job without books like this."
