In this post, we’ll learn about the AWS SDK for .NET and how to get started, using it to building .NET Core applications. There are many topics introduced in this post which lay some foundational knowledge that you will find useful as you get started developing .NET applications for AWS. A complete sample application can […]

Running AWS S3 (Simple Storage Service) Locally for .NET Core Developers Configuring an ASP.NET Core application to use a local S3 Docker container
In a previous post, I described how to run AWS DynamoDb locally using the AWS supplied docker image. I’ve recently been doing some work where I’m benchmarking code that works against AWS services. For example, I’m working to optimise speed and reduce allocations when downloading and parsing a file from AWS S3. I was curious […]
Publishing to AWS Simple Notification Service (SNS) from ASP.NET Core Building distributed systems with .NET Corea and AWS
In this post, I’ll demonstrate how to publish a message to AWS Simple Notification Service from an ASP.NET Core application. The same steps will work just as easily from a .NET Core generic host based console application also. I’ve decided to cover them here as I couldn’t find a specific piece of documentation for this […]
Running AWS DynamoDB Locally for .NET Core Developers Configuring an ASP.NET Core application to use a local DynamoDB Docker container
For a recent set of .NET Core based microservices I have found myself using AWS DynamoDB as a data store. I recently discovered that AWS provides (and have done for 5 years!) a local version of DynamoDB which is perfect for testing applications offline and without the need to set up actual DynamoDB tables in […]
Docker for .NET Developers (Part 7) Setting up Amazon EC2 Container Registry
In the previous part of this series I have discussed the reasons behind our decision to use Docker to run our product in production, using it to build and deploy images onto Amazon ECS. The next parts of this series will focus in on how we have achieved that and demonstrate how you can set […]
