In our previous post we announced support for deploying ASP.NET Core applications with AWS Elastic Beanstalk and the AWS Toolkit for Visual Studio. Today, we’ll talk about how deployment works and how you can customize it. After you go through the deployment wizard in the AWS Toolkit for Visual Studio, the toolkit bundles the application and […]

Today, we release support for deploying ASP.NET Core applications to AWS by using AWS Elastic Beanstalk (Elastic Beanstalk) and the AWS Toolkit for Visual Studio. This Elastic Beanstalk release expands the support the service already offers for deploying applications, including traditional ASP.NET applications, in a variety of languages to AWS. Let’s walk through the deployment […]

Today Microsoft announced PowerShell support on Windows, Linux and OS X platforms (read the blog announcement here).

Just like PowerShell itself, this new module […]

Version 3.1.93.0 of the AWS Tools for Windows PowerShell now includes support for tab completion of parameters that map to enumeration types in service APIs.

Although the legacy version (v2) of the SDK will continue to work, we strongly recommend that all customers migrate to the latest version 3 to take advantage of various improvements including modularized architecture, portable class library support, and .NET Core support. […]

In an earlier post, we discussed how you can turn on AWS SDK for .NET logging and how to log the SDK request metrics in JSON. In this post, we will discuss how you can use log4net or System.Diagnostics logging to gain access to the real RequestMetrics objects and work with raw metrics. This approach […]

The first post in this series discussed how to use an Amazon EC2 instance and AWS CodeDeploy to deploy ASP.NET Core applications from GitHub. The setup assumed all git pushes to GitHub were deployed to the running environment without validation. In this post, let’s examine how we can create an AWS environment for our ASP.NET […]

ASP.NET Core, formally ASP.NET 5, is a platform that offers lots of possibilities for deploying .NET applications. This series of posts will explore options for deploying ASP.NET applications on AWS.
