Episode notes
Cloud-Native vs. On-Premise
- Cloud-native applications must tolerate intermittent outages and shifting availability.
- On-premise systems usually have longer outages, requiring different approaches.
Azure Container Apps Issues
- Chris Klug had negative experiences with Azure Container Apps due to bugs and lockups in both development and production environments.
- He prefers Web Apps for Containers or AKS for container deployments.
Serverless vs. ASP.NET Core APIs
- Use serverless functions for asynchronous tasks like queue management, where startup latency is less critical.
- For APIs needing constant availability, consider ASP.NET Core for scalability.
