Web Wednesday

Microservices are a design pattern where rather than creating a monolith of an application you divide it up into smaller independent modules, each with their own specific task. By using microservices, you can make your application easier to write, test, and deploy, and scale as needed. If you're not familiar with the pattern, or how you can build an application with microservices using ASP.NET, we have longtime ASP.NET speaker and expert Jon Galloway on hand to answer all of your questions! We'll chat about why you would want to build an application with microservices, how to get started, and dive deeper into the process.

Presenters:
Jon Galloway, Senior Program Manager, VS & .Net
Jon works at Microsoft as a .NET Program Manager, focusing on Mac. He’s co-author of Wrox Professional ASP.NET MVC, writes samples and tutorials like the MVC Music Store and is a frequent speaker at conferences and international Web Camps events. Jon’s been doing professional web development since the late 1990's, including high scale applications in financial, entertainment and healthcare analytics. He’s part of the Herding Code podcast and Twitters as @jongalloway. He likes to travel but spends most of his time in San Diego with his amazingly patient wife Rachel, three wonderful daughters, a dozen avocado trees and the occasional rattlesnake.

Christopher Harrison, Senior Program Manager, Microsoft
Christopher is a longtime web dev who turned a coding hobby into a career. Currently a Senior Program Manager at Microsoft, he never lost the joy he felt in writing code and having the computer do what he asked and sharing that passion with others. These days he can be found at a keyboard writing TypeScript and Python. When not at a keyboard he can be found running long distances or relaxing with his wife and their four-legged child (an adorable dog) in Seattle.
