Today, we released a new NuGet package, Amazon.Extensions.Configuration.SystemsManager. This NuGet package simplifies how your application loads the application configuration settings in the AWS Systems Manager Parameter Store into the .NET Core configuration system. Configuration in .NET Core is quite different from what we’re used to in the .NET Framework. With the .NET Framework, we had […]

The antiforgery framework is a critical part of ASP.NET Core. It ensures web forms and login pages haven’t been tampered with by storing crypto data with the form and then validating the form with a key created by the Data Protection framework. An ASP.NET Core Data Protection Provider is the building block that provides encryption […]

In part 1 of this blog post, we explored using the lightweight dependency injection (DI) provided by Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection. By itself, this is great for libraries and small programs, but if you’re building a nontrivial application, you have other problems to contend with: You might have complex configuration needs (development versus production, multiple sources, etc.) How […]

Dependency injection (DI) is a central part of any nontrivial application today. .NET has libraries like Ninject for implementing inversion of control (IOC) in their development and, as of .NET Core 1.0 (specifically, .NET Standard 1.1), lightweight DI can be provided by Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection. This was used primarily in the context of developing .NET Core web applications, but it can be […]

AWS CDK for .NET The AWS Cloud Development Kit (AWS CDK) Developer Preview now has support for .NET! The AWS CDK is a software development framework to define cloud infrastructure as code and provision it through AWS CloudFormation. This provides familiarity, IDE and tools support, and flexibility that are unavailable when using static text definitions. […]

We are releasing support for Amazon S3 Select in the AWS SDK for .NET. This feature enables developers to run simple SQL queries against objects in Amazon S3. Today, if you’re frequently pulling entire objects to use portions of them, this functionality could dramatically improve performance. S3 Select works on objects stored in CSV format or JSON […]

F# is a functional language that runs on .NET and enables you to use packages written in other .NET languages, like the AWS SDK for .NET that’s written in C#. Today we have released a new version of the AWS Toolkit for Visual Studio 2017 with support for writing AWS Lambda functions in F#. These […]

In our previous post, we announced the release of the .NET Core 2.0 AWS Lambda runtime and new versions of our .NET tooling to help you develop .NET Core 2.0-based serverless applications. Also, with the new .NET Core 2.0 Lambda runtime, we’ve released our ASP.NET Core NuGet Package, Amazon.Lambda.AspNetCoreServer, for general availability. Version 2.0.0 of […]

Today we’ve released the highly anticipated .NET Core 2.0 AWS Lambda runtime that is available in all Lambda-supported regions. With .NET Core 2.0, it’s easier to move existing .NET Framework code to .NET Core with the much larger API defined in .NET Standard 2.0, which .NET Core 2.0 implements. Using Visual Studio 2017 The easiest […]

This is a guest post from Trevor Sullivan, a Seattle-based Solutions Architect at Amazon Web Services (AWS). In this blog post, Trevor shows you how to deploy a Windows Server-based container cluster using the AWS Tools for PowerShell. Building and deploying applications on the Windows Server platform is becoming a significantly lighter-weight process. Although you […]
