The key highlights to cover this month include:
Today, we’re announcing .NET Core 3.1 Preview 1. .NET Core 3.1 will be a small release focused on key improvements in Blazor and Windows desktop, the two big additions in .NET Core 3.0. It will be a long term support (LTS) release with an expected final ship date of December 2019.
Here’s the list of what’s new in this preview:
@attribute, @code, @key, @namespace, markup in @functions 
The Bosque programming language is designed for writing code that is simple, obvious, and easy to reason about for both humans and machines. The key design features of the language provide ways to avoidaccidental complexity in the development and coding process. The goal is improved developer productivity, increased software quality, and enabling a range of new compilers and developer tooling experiences.
When building several big cloud applications we found a lack of great solutions (that's not to say there isn't solutions out there) for many key pieces to building scalable distributed applications while keeping the development experience simple. Here are a few examples of why we built and use Foundatio.
Some key areas of focus uncovered by this investigation were:
Being mindful of memory allocations to minimize GC pause times
Keeping long-running calls non-blocking/asynchronous
Minimizing calls to external resources (such as other web services or the database) with caching and grouping of requests
Sql server 2019 will help us by making data integration, Management and intelligence easier and more intuitive than ever earlier.
Single virtual data layer
Data virtualization and Integrating Data
No data replication and Managing all data
Spark Built-In
Unified platform for big data analytics
Spark jobs
Train machine learning models
• Add foreign key constraint checking to the in-memory provider
Reasoning: It is desirable for foreign keys to be validated when running unit tests. This allows bugs to be caught earlier without the need for integration testing against a real database.
Redis (REmote DIctionay Server) is a very popular open-source, networked, in-memory, key-value data store, sometimes referred to as a data structure server which also comes with optional durability. Redis is well known for high performance, flexibility, provides a rich set of data structures, and a simple straightforward API.
For a good and secure web – and also for faster performance, new APIs on the web such as Service Workers, better search ranking and more – using HTTPS for your web site is key. I’ll walk you through how to easily get started with that here.
