Developing Cloud-Native Apps with .NET Aspire
I will explore how .NET Aspire simplifies building cloud-native applications. In this session, I'll dive into Aspire's powerful orchestration, integrations, and observability features with a hands-on demo of building and deploying an IoT cloud-native app. Perfect for developers looking to accelerate cloud adoption and improve local development workflows with .NET.
From Models to Momentum: The Cloud-Native Path to Real AI Impact
Building AI models is easy. Making them matter in the real world is hard. Too often, organizations become stuck in endless pilots: brilliant models that never scale, systems that collapse under real-world data, and innovation that is slowed by fragile infrastructure.
This session explores why cloud-native principles are the missing link between AI experiments and AI impact — and how Microsoft Azure provides the foundation to make this a reality. The audience will see how Azure Container Apps Serverless GPUs let teams run AI inference on demand without managing infrastructure, and how dynamic sessions provide secure, sandboxed compute for LLM-generated code, AI agents, and ephemeral workloads. I will also examine how Azure AI Foundry integration simplifies model deployment directly to Container Apps, as well as how sidecars in Azure App Service make AI-native apps easier to deploy, scale, and manage.
Through practical examples, the audience will learn how these capabilities turn models into production-ready systems that adapt, evolve, and deliver value with efficiency and resilience. Whether you’re building generative AI solutions or scaling intelligent apps, this talk will show why cloud-native on Azure isn’t optional for AI — it’s essential.
Azure Container Apps: Is It the Best Cloud-Native Alternative for .NET Developers?
The cloud-native initiative aims to maintain cloud-agnostic principles, reduce technical debt, and bridge the gap between local development and cloud deployment. Azure Container Apps offers .NET developers an efficient, scalable, and streamlined way to embrace these principles. Designed specifically for modern container-based workloads, this service simplifies deployment while providing robust support for serverless workloads, microservices architectures, and event-driven patterns.
In this advanced technical session, I will examine Azure Container Apps thoroughly, carefully comparing them with alternatives such as Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS), Azure Functions, and Azure App Services. I will highlight scenarios where Azure Container Apps deliver maximum value and efficiency for .NET developers.
Key session topics include:
• Practical, hands-on deployment strategies for distributed .NET applications.
• Advanced techniques for managing scalability, elasticity, and optimizing resource usage to balance performance and cost.
• In-depth exploration of advanced configurations covering networking options, robust security implementations, and enhanced observability and monitoring capabilities.
The attendees will gain insights and practical knowledge to confidently determine whether Azure Container Apps is the optimal cloud-native alternative for their .NET development needs.
Exploring Cloud-Native Alternatives in Azure
The cloud-native initiative emphasizes maintaining cloud-agnostic principles, effectively managing technical debt, and reducing the gap between local development and cloud deployment. Selecting the right Azure services aligned with these goals is crucial for building scalable, resilient, and agile software.
In this session, I'll explore various Azure services designed for cloud-native applications, comparing their strengths, weaknesses, and optimal use cases. Specifically, I’ll examine:
• Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS): Ideal for complex, large-scale container orchestration.
• Azure Container Apps: Simplicity and ease of use for containerized workloads.
• Azure Functions: Event-driven, serverless computing for quick scaling.
• Azure App Service: Versatile platform service for web applications and APIs.
I will also address important non-functional considerations, including team experience, adaptability to new technologies, and other factors significantly influencing technology decisions. Attendees will gain insights into each service's nuanced differences and practical applications, empowering them to make informed decisions for their next cloud-native .NET project.
