Performance Improvements in .NET 9

Each year, summer arrives to find me daunted and excited to write about the performance improvements in the upcoming release of .NET. “Daunted,” because these posts, covering .NET 8, .NET 7, .NET 6, .NET 5, .NET Core 3.0, .NET Core 2.1, and .NET Core 2.0, have garnered a bit of a reputation I want to ensure the next iteration lives up to. And “excited,” because there’s such an abundance of material to cover due to just how much goodness has been packed into the next .NET release, I struggle to get it all written down as quickly as my thoughts whirl.

The .NET Core and the Core Libraries are open source and run on Windows, Mac, and Linux. In fact, you can run them with support, today, in production on Windows and Linux (Mac is for development, not production). 

PostSharp 5.1 will focus on providing support for .NET Standard 2.0 and .NET Core 2.0. Our objective is to port the PostSharp compiler itself to .NET Standard 2.0 so that we can compile .NET Standard and .NET Core applications natively, without cross-compilation. PostSharp 5.1 will still only support Windows as the only build platform. 

What’s new?

Here’s a sampling of the great new features and improvements in ASP.NET Core for .NET 7:

• Servers and runtime
  • Rating limiting: Limit the rate of handled requests using flexible endpoint configuration and policies.
  • Output caching: Configure output caching to reduce to more efficiently handle request.
  • Request decompression: Accept requests with compressed content.
  • HTTP/3: Built-in support for HTTP/3, the latest HTTP version based on the new QUIC multiplexed transport protocol.
  • WebSockets over HTTP/2: Use WebSockets over HTTP/2 connections.
  • WebTransport (experimental): Create streams and data grams over HTTP/3 with experimental support for WebTransport.
• Minimal APIs
  • Endpoint filters: Use endpoint filters to run cross-cutting code before or after a route handler.
  • Typed results: Return strongly typed results from minimal APIs.
  • Route groups: Organize groups of endpoints with a common prefix
• gRPC
  • JSON transcoding: Expand the reach of your gRPC services by also exposing them as JSON-based APIs
  • OpenAPI with JSON transcoding (experimenal): Use experimental support for generating OpenAPI specs for your gRPC JSON transcoded services.
  • gRPC health checks: Report and check the health of gRPC server apps.
  • gRPC client AddCallCredentials : Create clients that send authorized requests using bearer tokens.
• SignalR
  • Client results: Return client results to the server in response to requests from the server.
• MVC
  • Nullable view and page models: Nullable page and view models are now supported to improve the experience when using null state checking.
• Blazor
  • Custom elements: Build standard HTML custom elements with Blazor to integrate Blazor components with any JavaScript-based app.
  • Handle location changing events: Intercept location changing events to create custom user experiences when navigating.
  • Bind after/get/set modifiers: Run async logic after data binding and independently control how data binding gets and sets the data.
  • Dynamic authentication requests: Create dynamic authentication requests at runtime with custom parameters to handle advanced authentication scenarios in Blazor WebAssembly apps.
  • Improved JavaScript interop on WebAssembly: Optimize JavaScript interop call when running on WebAssembly using the new [JSImport]/[JSExport] support.
  • WebAssembly SIMD & exception handling: Improve performance with .NET WebAssembly ahead-of-time (AOT) compilation using WebAssembly SIMD and exception handling support. 

Today, we are announcing .NET Core 3.0 Preview 3. We would like to update you on the .NET Core 3.0 schedule and introduce you to improvements in .NET Core SDK installers, Docker containers, Range, and Index. We also have updates on the Windows Desktop and Entity Framework projects. 

In this video we will build a complete full stack Blog Web App using the new Blazor Web App with SSR with .Net 8 | Step by Step | From Scratch to End You will learn: New Static Server Side Rendering with Blazor, QuickGrid, Enhanced Navigation, Enhanced Forms, Stream Rendering, Image Preview & Upload, Identity Authentication, Interactive Server Render Mode for Admin Panel, and much more  

Akka.NET is an open-source actor model framework written exclusively for Microsoft.NET in C# and compatible with .NET Core. It simplifies the building of scalable, concurrent, high-throughput, and low-latency systems, making life for software developers a bit easier. Zoran Maksimovic's Akka.NET Succinctly will show readers what an actor model is and how to work with actors in Akka.NET, taking them from an actor's lifecycle through to unit testing.
