Why is .NET so Insanely Fast? with Stephen Toub | Keep Coding Podcast #7
Keep Coding Podcast
In this video I will have a chat with Stephen Toub, Partner Software Engineer at Microsoft. Stephen has been a core part of the performance advancements in .NET and in this episode I will try and get his perspective on why is .NET so fast.

I was pleasantly surprised by how easy it was to setup and install ASP.NET Core 2.1 on Linux. I did it for the first time in 15 minutes with no previous experience with .NET Core on Linux. I did it the second time, in production, in 5 minutes by following these instructions.

In this article, I show you how to install the .NET Core runtime on CentOS, how to get a sample ASP.NET Core project running on Kestrel as a service for reliability, and how to configure both the code and the firewall to enable remote access. Finally, I discuss what I would do differently for actual production usage.
