Book Description

Designing enterprise software requires balancing scalability, resilience, security, and agility. This book helps developers and aspiring architects build production-ready applications using C# 14 and .NET 10.

Written by Gabriel Baptista and Francesco Abbruzzese, this updated edition takes a practical approach to software architecture with real-world examples and case studies. You’ll learn how to design maintainable distributed systems, apply domain-driven design, and manage architectural decisions using tools such as GitHub Copilot and .NET Aspire.

The book explores software architectural patterns with cloud-native microservices and SOA, along with CI/CD pipelines, DevSecOps automation, Kubernetes orchestration, and secure deployments. You’ll also build reusable frontend services and micro-frontends using Blazor and ASP.NET Core.

By the end of this book, you’ll be able to architect scalable enterprise .NET applications with confidence.

What you will learn

• Master software architecture principles using .NET 10 and C# 14
• Apply DevSecOps principles and automate pipelines with GitHub Actions
• Use GitHub Copilot to improve coding and testing workflows
• Implement cloud-native microservices with Kubernetes
• Secure applications using bearer tokens and client certificates
• Build reusable C# APIs with NuGet and OpenAPI
• Develop Blazor applications and micro-frontends
• Integrate EF Core and Cosmos DB into enterprise applications

Who this book is for
