DevOps for C# (.NET) Developers: Automation, CI/CD and Cloud Technologies

The book "DevOps for C# (.NET) Developers" is a practical guide that will help C# and .NET platform developers master key DevOps practices. You will learn how to set up continuous integration and delivery (CI/CD), automate building, testing, and deploying applications, as well as effectively use containerization and cloud services.

The book is aimed at C# developers of any level — from juniors to seniors — who want to expand their skills in infrastructure and automation. Basic knowledge of C# and .NET is assumed, but no prior experience in DevOps is required.

What you will learn from the book:

• How to set up CI/CD pipelines using Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions, and Jenkins for .NET projects
• Basics of containerization: Docker and creating images for ASP.NET Core applications
• Container orchestration with Kubernetes: deployment, scaling, and service management
• Test automation (unit, integration, load) in pipelines
• Infrastructure as Code (IaC) with Terraform and ARM templates for Azure
• Monitoring and logging with Application Insights, Prometheus, and Grafana
• Security in DevOps: dependency scanning, secrets, and access policies
• Practical examples: from a simple web API to a microservice architecture

Each chapter contains ready-to-use code examples, implementation checklists, and tips for avoiding common mistakes. You won't just read theory — you'll be able to immediately apply the knowledge in real projects.

After studying the book, you will be able to independently:

• Set up a full CI/CD cycle for .NET applications
• Containerize and deploy applications in the cloud (Azure/AWS)
• Manage infrastructure through code
• Organize monitoring and rapid debugging in production
• Speed up the release cycle and reduce the number of errors

This book will become your navigator in the world of DevOps for .NET — from the first steps to advanced techniques. Whether you work in a startup or a large corporation, you will find practical recipes for improving software development and delivery processes.

Additional materials: the book includes links to repositories with examples, configuration templates, and tool recommendations. All of this is designed so you can start practicing immediately.

Make your .NET project faster, more reliable, and more automated with DevOps!
