Training [Modern distributed systems with gRPC in ASP.NET Core 5.0]
Dates: June 5-6 [2 days of learning, 8 hours per day] • Language: English
Overview:
gRPC is a high-performance, cross-platform framework for building distributed systems and APIs. It’s an ideal choice for communication between microservices, internal network applications, or mobile devices and services. With the release of ASP.NET Core 5.0, Microsoft has added first-class support for creating gRPC services. This workshop will help you get started building, deploying and managing gRPC servers and clients on multiple platforms.
Note: although the workshop uses .NET 5.0, almost everything also applies to the .NET Core 3.1 LTS release.
