Enterprise .NET: Advanced Patterns and Practices

1 Course
2 Hours
Skill IQ

This is .NET enterprise development for the real world, where design and deployment options are constrained by legacy code, external dependencies, and the production database. Add to your skill set the awareness and abilities that enable zero-downtime deployments, database versioning, and safely isolating and replacing broken dependencies. These "unglamorous" skills are part of what transforms mid-level engineers into the key players that enable stability and longevity of global enterprise systems.
