Description

Understanding solution architecture is a must to build and integrate robust systems to meet your client’s needs. This makes it crucial for a professional .NET software engineer to learn the key skills of a .NET solution architect to create a unique digital journey and build solutions for a wide range of industries, from strategy and design to implementation. With this handbook, developers working with the .NET technology will be able to put their knowledge to work. The book takes a hands-on approach to help you become an effective solution architect. You’ll start by learning the principles of the software development life cycle (SDLC), the roles and responsibilities of a .NET solution architect, and what makes a great .NET solution architect. As you make progress through the chapters, you’ll understand the principles of solution architecture and how to design a solution, and explore designing layers and microservices. You'll complete your learning journey by uncovering modern design patterns and techniques for designing and building digital solutions. By the end of this book, you'll have learned how to architect your modern web solutions with ASP.NET Core and Microsoft Azure and be ready to automate your development life cycle with Azure DevOps.

If you’re looking to take your .NET career to the next level or need a refresher on what it means to be an architect in the .NET space, this book is for you.The first section captures what it means to be working in the commercial world of software development. It covers in detail team structures, software development methodologies, and what it means to be an architect. It provides great, usable examples that you can take away and start implementing today if you're new to this space. If you're already well established, you might want to jump to sections 2 and 3!From here on, while some chapters cover solution architecture design at a high level, this is where your .NET skills come into play. You'll be introduced to best patterns and practices in .NET software design, modelling and detailing architectures with diagrams, and applying these to real world examples with .NET 5 applications (including microservices architectures!)You'll also get an in-depth look at some common considerations that you can also start thinking about and applying to your .NET applications. These have a significant impact on how you grow as a both a developer and an architect. We're talking strategies for performance, maintenance, reusability, testing, and security. These thought-provoking sections are what take the mindset of a developer to the architect level.Overall, the book is a great starter for .NET developers who want to excel, think, and work towards a career in architecture. If you are fully committed to the Microsoft Azure ecosystem (or are looking to be), you'll get the most of this book. Otherwise, it plays as a good reference handbook for .NET architects in general.

This book has joined my list of useful texts to get ideas across to junior devs. On my first .NET project years ago, the architecture had already been established. Those decisions were a black box to me at the time. This book does a great job of filling in lots of detail about *why* it was done that way.In the years since, I've learned a lot of this as my career and skill level advanced. And I've also had to explain these concepts to junior developers. They will often ask why we bother to do things "the hard way".This covers all of the basics, from the dev life cycle, to roles on the team, architecture styles and when to choose them, and even UML diagramming. The sections on security and testing were especially helpful.I agree with some of the other reviewers that code samples *might* have been helpful. But this book works very well as a thorough high-level overview of the topic. I'm glad I picked it up and learned from it.

The book "Solution Architecture with .NET" by Jamil Hallal is one good resource of .NET including great explanation.This book gives a tremendous walk through of core concepts and architecture for all ASP.NET Developers out there. When developer start working on any project, they might need guidance and clarity on how to start designing and implementing the blue print. That is the crucial stage of project. This is the point where this book helps and motivates a developer what to chose and how to start. The UML's and graphical representations in this book makes a developer easy to understand and focus.Author has a great skills to make everyone understand the concept and move forward. digrams, examples and tips are very helpful. I suggest this book to all the .NET developer's.Thank you Packt team for bringing out such a great book to the audience.

This book is great for those people transitioning from sole contributor to enterprise architect. Often developers become hyper specialized in their skill set. How to lead the architecture of an entire organization. It shows organisational strategies such as SDLC and UML. As well as orthogonal strategies for making sure that the software is build efficiently with security in mind.I liked how the author was prescriptive. He used .net and Azure. This gives the reader a easy to follow road map of tools they can implement. Specifically I liked that he used Azure DevOps tooling to show how to use pipelines and artifacts.I have been an Architect for 8 years now so for me this book was a bit of a review. This book would have been invaluable when I was a developer thinking about advancing my career. He does not go over some of the more cutting edge architects such as data mesh, C4, and DDD. But all in all this is a great book.
