Docker and Micro services for .NET

Question

Hi,

how much time (in general) it takes to learn docker and micro services. I have 10 years experience in ASP.NET but i am not aware of Docker,Kubernettes and Microservices.

Are they in demand or used in now a days all projects ?

Please suggest your valuable opinions.

yes, future is Microsservices , Microservice means each module will have separate BL ,DAL and in some cases DB too, and thus any new upgradation to software will be much faster and will not affect the existing one. There will be no foreign keys in most cases between tables as each will be separately deployed and will be loosely coupled with other module and module's DB. Industry is moving towards microservices, however , you can't go for Microservices for existing project suddenly & in one go. for new projects you can think of Microservice architecture. Docker and Kubernetes will take less time to learn. Udemy has free cources for these , please search.

If you have experieces with asp.net then it will not take much time to learn microservices, docker etc. You can find several resources in c-sharpcorner and google. Without any doubt, these technologies are booming and will be in more demand. Regards

The thing with microservices is that you not only have to learn them because they are a hot topic but to understand their drawback and advantages as well as correct decomposition of microservices. Also, it requires understanding of distributed communication and some robustness patterns such as circuit breaker, retry ect.

Agree with other answers. So, majority of companies are moving to Cloud native development which means Docker, Microservices etc etc. Check out my article here on Cloud native to understand and why these technologies are important to learn: https://www.c-sharpcorner.com/article/what-is-cloud-native-apps/

Based on which platform you are interested like Azure, AWS or GCP you can learn these concepts. These are the concepts that are required to take your apps to next level of cloud maturity after hosting in cloud. You can google for these concepts based on platform and learn it.
