Keynote: Introducing .NET Aspire – Cloud Native Development for .NET

on YouTube ↗48m

" summary

.NET Aspire ships May 21 and converts existing .NET apps into cloud‑native apps by defaulting telemetry, health checks, service discovery and resilience so a real app needs only two lines of code added to get observability and retry policies. Local development runs dependent services in containers, emulators and executables; publishing runs AZD to generate Bicep infra and run azd up to push to Azure Container Apps (KEDA autoscaling, managed identity) while the dashboard in cloud shows traces, structured logs and a 15‑service eShop working end‑to‑end.
