Hands on workshop describing how to use the Steeltoe components in developing .NET applications for Cloud Foundry.

The workshop provides users with a solid understanding of the tools and techniques used to build enterprise-class ASP.NET applications on Cloud Foundry.

It covers topics such as:

• Pivotal Cloud Foundry & Services
• Micro-services using ASP.NET Core
• Centralized application configuration
• Service discovery
• Horizontal scaling
• Fault tolerance using Circuit Breakers
• Security
• Production Management & Monitoring

When following the workshop, you incrementally build and deploy a sample application (i.e. Fortune Teller) which employs all of above tools & techniques.

Start by checking out this repository. This can be accomplished either through the GitHub website or if you have Git installed, use the following commands:

> git clone https://github.com/SteeltoeOSS/Workshop
> cd Workshop

• Cloud Foundry CLI
• Git Client
• .NET Core SDK 2.0
• Visual Studio Code or Visual Studio 2017
• Java 8 JDK - Optional, needed to run Eureka and Config servers locally

Follow the steps in Lab 0 to get everything installed and verified.

1. The descriptions for each lab can be found in each labXX directory. (e.g. Lab05 Description)

2. The completed workshop code for each lab can be found in each labXX directory. (e.g. Lab5 Completed Code)

3. The final completed workshop code can be found in the Final directory.

4. When starting with the labs for the section Building Fortune Teller Application (i.e. Lab5-Lab11), you should start with the code in the Start directory.

5. You can find the instructors Slides in the repository.
