November 2024 marked the release of .NET 9 and C# 13. In this session, I will talk about what is new in the latest version of .NET and what the future will bring for the .NET platform in general. Expect a large number of new .NET 9 and C# 13 features and examples of those features.
You have decided to run your cloud-native applications using containers? But how will you deploy these containers to Azure Cloud? AKS or Azure Kubernetes Service is very popular, but also adds a lot of complexity to setting-up and deploying your infrastructure! ACI or Azure Container Instances are very easy to setup, but don't offer you enough flexibility? ACA or Azure Container Apps are Microsoft Azure's new serverless container offering, built as an abstraction on top of AKS, and could be the solution to your question! In this session I will introduce you to Azure Container Apps and compare it to AKS and ACI and guide you through setting-up a multi-container app using Azure Container App container environments.
