You may have encountered a situation where you must do some backend job without user intervention. For example, in an IOT application, your application needs to receive frequently published data from devices or send scheduler values to devices. .NET provides background job libraries for such tasks. I will discuss one of the background libraries, Quartz.NET, with a coding example. I will break down Quartz for you with simple, practical examples.

A few years ago, I had a play with HTTP logging added in ASP.NET Core 6. ASP.NET Core 8 introduced a set of additional configuration options that I believe are essential to make this feature usable. I will recap the details from the previous post below, but for more context, the first part of this series is here. In this post, I'll go through some of the changes introduced in HTTP logging since last. Before I jump into the improvements, let's recap how to set up HTTP logging.

In Software development, code readability transforms complexity into clarity. Martin Fowler said: Code should be readable and manageable so other developers can understand and work without additional fatigue. .NET has many ways to enhance readability and manageability. This post will explore C#'s extension methods by listing five use cases that I use on all of the ASP.NET Core projects I'm working on.

Decreasing response time is one of the key measures towards improving the user experience of an application. Caching techniques and other practices can help your.NET application perform well with low effort. With caching, you can keep frequently accessed delay-prone data in a fast, accessible location. This can improve your application's performance remarkably without making a big effort. In this post, I'll introduce a few different ways of implementing caching in ASP.NET Core.

Stack traces are important for debugging and understanding exceptions in.NET applications. They provide detailed information about the error and the call stack when an exception occurs, allowing us as developers to investigate why an error happened. In this post, I'll walk you through the basics of reading.NET stack traces and explore more advanced scenarios, including how multiple types of stack traces can be combined.

elmah.io is the easy error logging and uptime monitoring service for .NET. Take back control of your errors with support for all .NET web and logging frameworks.
Never rely on users to report bugs again:
- Error Monitoring: With elmah.io Error Monitoring, all errors on your websites are automatically synced to elmah.io’s powerful infrastructure in the cloud. Using a range of different dashboards, it is easy for you to monitor the current state of your applications and react as soon as something breaks down. You can track both a single application as well as get the full picture of all applications, using a range of interesting metrics. Integrations with popular instant messaging and issue tracking systems, reduce the time from introducing an error to deploying a fix in production. Our users tell us that elmah.io helps them introduce fewer errors into their applications.
- Uptime Monitoring: elmah.io Uptime Monitoring continuously pings your endpoints from up to 5 different regions. When your endpoints start failing, errors are logged in your existing error logs. This means that all of the rules and notifications already set up just work. No need to maintain your team and notification rules in multiple tools. Uptime checks also validate your SSL certificates and domain names, giving you a chance to renew both before users start experiencing errors in their browser.
- Deployment Tracking: Deployment Tracking gives you a perfect overview of the different versions of your software. New versions of your software are automatically registered by elmah.io. Metrics about the performance of each release are collected immediately. Being able to determine if a new release introduced bugs, will allow for quick fixing or rollback to a previous version. Deployment Tracking supports all of the popular deployment choices on the market, like Azure DevOps and Octopus Deploy.
- Heartbeats: Heartbeats is for scheduled tasks and services as Uptime Monitoring is for your websites. Add a predefined schedule and publish heartbeats to elmah.io when a scheduled task succeeds, every hour from your Windows Service, and much more. elmah.io automatically monitors your heartbeats. Using the built-in notifications and App Store, your teams are notified as soon as one of your heartbeats is unhealthy or missing.
