Preparing for Azure Service Fabric
Channel: IDesignIncTV
Date: 2017-05-01

For the modern software engineer, Azure Service Fabric represents nothing less than the next evolution in software development on the Microsoft stack. Just as .NET did for component-oriented applications, the Service Fabric provides a new runtime and supporting platform for simplifying the construction and administration of service-oriented systems. Central to the Service Fabric’s development experience is its deployment-aware, microservice-oriented programming model. This model represents a significant departure from the way .NET developers structure code and applications. Ideally, you must be able to prepare your existing legacy systems in their current environments for this new system structure and programming model.

In this technically immersive session, Michael ‘Monty’ Montgomery will reveal in detail IDesign’s unique framework, ServiceModelEx.ServiceFabric, that allows you to align your existing .NET codebases today for a smooth transition to the Service Fabric. Monty will demonstrate some essential aspects of the Service Fabric’s programming model, first in .NET and then in the Service Fabric simply by recompiling the same code to target the Azure Service Fabric. Throughout Monty will highlight the efficient, fluid developer experience ServiceModelEx.ServiceFabric enables across both environments.
