eBook Description:

High-Performance Programming in C# and .NET: Enhance your enterprise applications’ performance using best practices for benchmarking, application profiling, asynchronous programming, designing responsive UIs, gRPC communication, and distributed applications

Writing high-performance code while building an application is crucial, and over the years, Microsoft has focused on delivering various performance-related improvements within the .NET ecosystem. This book will help you understand the aspects involved in designing responsive, resilient, and high-performance applications with the new version of C# and .NET.

You will start by understanding the foundation of high-performance code and the latest performance-related improvements in C# 10.0 and .NET 6. Next, you’ll learn how to use tracing and diagnostics to track down performance issues and the cause of memory leaks. The chapters that follow then show you how to enhance the performance of your networked applications and various ways to improve directory tasks, file tasks, and more. Later, you’ll go on to improve data querying performance and write responsive user interfaces. You’ll also discover how you can use cloud providers such as Microsoft Azure to build scalable distributed solutions. Finally, you’ll explore various ways to process code synchronously, asynchronously, and in parallel to reduce the time it takes to process a series of tasks.

• Use correct types and collections to enhance application performance
• Profile, benchmark, and identify performance issues with the codebase
• Explore how to best perform queries on LINQ to improve an application’s performance
• Effectively utilize a number of CPUs and cores through asynchronous programming
• Build responsive user interfaces with WinForms, WPF, MAUI, and WinUI
• Benchmark ADO.NET, Entity Framework Core, and Dapper for data access
• Implement CQRS and event sourcing and build and deploy microservices

By the end of this High-Performance Programming in C# and .NET programming book, you’ll have the confidence you need to build highly resilient, high-performance applications that meet your customer’s demands.
