This is a practical guide for implementing the Domain Driven Design (DDD). While the implementation details rely on the ABP Framework infrastructure, core concepts, principles and patterns are applicable in any kind of solution, even if it is not a .NET solution. 

While we're waiting for the Windows 10 spring update - codenamed Redstone 4 - to arrive any day now, Insiders that chose the Skip Ahead subset of the Fast ring are already on Redstone 5 Today, Microsoft released Windows 10 Insider Preview build 17639 to those Insiders

the .NET Core April 2019 Update. These updates contain security and reliability fixes.  

The HTTP protocol specification defines an ETag as the "entity value for the requested variant"  Another way of saying this is that the ETag is a token that can be associated with web resource 

Cloud Computing is currently the hot topic in the developer world these days, and it seems all anyone wants to talk about is the cloud. If you're like me you signed up for something like Windows Azure just to see what the hype was all about. There are a lot of good reasons to move an app to the cloud, but it's still not for everyone. There are some things you need to think about before taking this gamble with your app.  

Azure Functions are one of the best examples of serverless applications. By default you can't use Dependency injection: here's how you can configure it by adding the Startup class.
