What’s new for performance in .NET Core and ASP.NET Core 3.0 – Ben Adams
One of the biggest advantages of using .NET Core (besides cross-platform support) is the drastic improvements in performance. Because the .NET Core team was able to make minor breaking changes in the runtime and Base Class Library (BCL), lots of stuff was implemented much more efficiently. In this session Ben will dive into the performance improvements in .NET Core in the 3.0 release: runtime changes, JIT changes, intrinsics and a deep dive into some of the improvements making it the best release yet!

• We have two new refactorings for global usings, Extract Global Using and Inline Global Using, with Find Usages support for this feature.
• For nullable reference types, we’ve split the “should never be null” warning into two categories: one for those who look at NRT annotation and one for those who have a runtime check for null. We’ve also added a setting to enable runtime enforced not null warnings only, and supported [MemberNotNull] and [MemberNotNullWhen] annotations.
• We’ve implemented generic attributes support for C#11. 

 LINQ to Entities does not recognize the method 'System.String ToString()' method, and this method cannot be translated into a store expression.

• Linux support for tier-1, mission-critical workloads – SQL Server 2017 support for Linux includes the same high availability solutions on Linux as Windows Server, including Always On availability groups integrated with Linux native clustering solutions like Pacemaker.
• Graph data processing in SQL Server – With the graph data features available in SQL Server 2017and Azure SQL Database, customers can create nodes and edges, and discover complex and many-to-many relationships.
• Adaptive query processing – Adaptive query processing is a family of features in SQL Server 2017 that automatically keeps database queries running as efficiently as possible without requiring additional tuning from database administrators. In addition to the capability to adjust batch mode memory grants, the feature set includes batch mode adaptive joins and interleaved execution capabilities.
• Python integration for advanced analytics – Microsoft Machine Learning Services now brings you the ability to run in-database analytics using Python or R in a parallelized and scalable way. The ability to run advanced analytics in your operational store without ETL means faster time to insights for customers while easy deployment and rich extensibility make it fast to get up and running on the right model.
