ASP.NET Core observability (Coming soon)

Being able to observe your services in production effectively is crucial if you want to get a complete picture of the health and activity of your system. This course provides a hands-on foundation to successfully implement observability of your ASP.NET Core services in production.

You will learn:

  • How to collect and implement logging, tracing, metrics and health
  • How to analyze and interpret the results
  • Tools to explore the logs and tracing data
  • How to build dashboards to analyze the metrics in Grafana
  • And much more…

In this course, you will not only develop locally, but you will also push the code live to the cloud to allow you to experience the reality of observing services in production.

Software and equipment:

This course contains plenty of hands-on practical exercises where you will learn how to work with ASP.NET Core and prepare it for production. 

In this course, we use Visual Studio 2022, C#, and ASP.NET Core (.NET 6), and we recommend that you have a good computer that can run multiple instances of Visual Studio and at least one big monitor.
