Can You Keep a .NET Secret? Managing Application Configuration with Azure

In every application you develop, you'll need to handle secrets, settings, and connection strings across different environments. While these are often stored in appsettings files for each environment, is that really the most secure and efficient approach?

In this session, Lindsey will demystify how the .NET configuration system works behind the scenes. You'll learn how to securely store your secrets using Azure Key Vault and manage them more effectively. Additionally, Lindsey will show you how to make safe, real-time changes to your settings using Azure App Configuration.

By the end of this session, you'll understand how Azure Key Vault and App Configuration can revolutionize the way you manage secrets, settings, and connection strings, making your approach more secure and adaptable!

.NET Aspire: Let's build a cloud application with backed in observability

.NET Aspire is a new opinionated developer stack to build observable, production ready, distributed applications.

So let us take a look at what it can do and how it can help us deliver new cloud applications.

There is a big focus on observability, all build on top of OpenTelemetry. This for logs, metrics and traces.
