Let’s dive into each topic with detailed explanations and real-world examples.
Publishing ASP.NET Core Apps
What is Publishing?
Publishing in ASP.NET Core is the process of preparing an application for deployment by compiling it, collecting dependencies, and generating a set of files ready for hosting. ASP.NET Core supports Framework-Dependent Deployment (FDD) and Self-Contained Deployment (SCD).
Key Features
FDD: Requires the .NET runtime on the target server, producing smaller packages.
SCD: Includes the .NET runtime, making the application portable but larger.
Publish Profiles: Define deployment settings (e.g., target framework, output folder).
Tools: Use dotnet publish or Visual Studio for publishing.
Pros, Cons, and Alternatives for Publishing
Pros
Portability: SCD allows deployment on servers without .NET installed.
Flexibility: FDD reduces package size for environments with .NET.
Automation: Integrates with CI/CD pipelines.
Built-in: dotnet publish simplifies the process.
Cons
Complexity: SCD increases package size significantly.
Dependencies: FDD requires correct .NET runtime on the server.
Configuration: Publish profiles can be complex for beginners.
Error Handling: Misconfigurations can cause deployment failures.
Alternatives
Manual Deployment: Copy files manually (error-prone).
FTP Deployment: Use FTP to transfer files (less secure).
Containerization: Use Docker for consistent deployments.
Cloud-Specific Tools: Use Azure or AWS deployment tools.
Example: Publishing an ASP.NET Core App
Let’s publish an MVC application using dotnet publish.
Step 1: Create a New MVC Project
dotnet new mvc -o ECommerceApp
cd ECommerceAppStep 2: Publish the ApplicationRun the following command to publish for FDD:
dotnet publish -c Release -o ./publishFor SCD targeting Windows:
dotnet publish -c Release -r win-x64 --self-contained true -o ./publishStep 3: Verify Published FilesCheck the ./publish folder for compiled binaries, views, and dependencies. For FDD, only application files are included; for SCD, the .NET runtime is included.
Step 4: Test LocallyRun the published app:
dotnet ./publish/ECommerceApp.dllNavigate to https://localhost:5001 to verify the application runs.
This example demonstrates publishing an ASP.NET Core app for FDD and SCD, ready for hosting.
Hosting in IIS, Kestrel, Linux, Docker

Example: Hosting on Different Platforms
Let’s host the e-commerce app on IIS, Kestrel, Linux (with Nginx), and Docker.
Hosting on IIS
Step 1: Install ASP.NET Core Hosting ModuleInstall the ASP.NET Core Hosting Bundle from Microsoft.
Step 2: Configure IISCreate a new site in IIS Manager, pointing to the published folder (./publish). Ensure the application pool uses No Managed Code.
Step 3: TestAccess the site (e.g., http://localhost:80). Ensure HTTPS is configured in production.
Hosting with Kestrel
Step 1: Update Program.cs
using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Builder;
using Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection;
using Microsoft.Extensions.Hosting;
var builder = WebApplication.CreateBuilder(args);
// Add services to the container.
builder.Services.AddControllersWithViews();
var app = builder.Build();
// Configure the HTTP request pipeline.
if (!app.Environment.IsDevelopment())
{
app.UseExceptionHandler("/Home/Error");
app.UseHsts();
}
app.UseHttpsRedirection();
app.UseStaticFiles();
app.UseRouting();
app.UseAuthorization();
app.MapControllerRoute(
name: "default",
pattern: "{controller=Home}/{action=Index}/{id?}");
app.Run();Step 2: Run with Kestrel
dotnet ./publish/ECommerceApp.dllStep 3: TestAccess https://localhost:5001.
Hosting on Linux with Nginx
Step 1: Install .NET and NginxOn a Linux server (e.g., Ubuntu):
sudo apt update
sudo apt install -y dotnet-sdk-6.0 nginxStep 2: Deploy Published FilesCopy the ./publish folder to /var/www/ecommerceapp.
Step 3: Configure NginxCreate /etc/nginx/sites-available/ecommerceapp:
server {
listen 80;
server_name example.com;
location / {
proxy_pass http://localhost:5000;
proxy_http_version 1.1;
proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
proxy_set_header Connection keep-alive;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_cache_bypass $http_upgrade;
}
}Enable the site:
sudo ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/ecommerceapp /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/
sudo nginx -t
sudo systemctl restart nginxStep 4: Run the App
cd /var/www/ecommerceapp
dotnet ECommerceApp.dllStep 5: TestAccess http://example.com.
Hosting with Docker
Step 1: Create DockerfileCreate Dockerfile in the project root:
FROM mcr.microsoft.com/dotnet/aspnet:6.0
WORKDIR /app
COPY ./publish .
ENTRYPOINT ["dotnet", "ECommerceApp.dll"]Step 2: Build and Run
docker build -t ecommerceapp .
docker run -d -p 8080:80 ecommerceappStep 3: TestAccess http://localhost:8080.
This example demonstrates hosting on multiple platforms with proper configuration.

Real-Life Example: Deploying an E-Commerce Platform
Let’s deploy an e-commerce platform with CI/CD, monitoring, and hosting on Azure.
Step 1: Set Up the ProjectUse the MVC project from the publishing example and add a product model.
Create Models/Product.cs:
namespace ECommerceApp.Models
{
public class Product
{
public int Id { get; set; }
public string Name { get; set; }
public decimal Price { get; set; }
}
}Create Data/AppDbContext.cs:
using Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore;
using ECommerceApp.Models;
namespace ECommerceApp.Data
{
public class AppDbContext : DbContext
{
public AppDbContext(DbContextOptions<AppDbContext> options) : base(options)
{
}
public DbSet<Product> Products { get; set; }
}
}Step 2: Update Program.cs
using ECommerceApp.Data;
using Microsoft.ApplicationInsights.AspNetCore.Extensions;
using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Builder;
using Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore;
using Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection;
using Microsoft.Extensions.Hosting;
var builder = WebApplication.CreateBuilder(args);

using System;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
namespace ECommerceApp.Controllers
{
public class ProductController : Controller
{
private readonly AppDbContext _context;
private readonly ILogger<ProductController> _logger;
public ProductController(AppDbContext context, ILogger<ProductController> logger)
{
_context = context;
_logger = logger;
}
public async Task<IActionResult> Index()
{
try
{
var products = await _context.Products.ToListAsync();
_logger.LogInformation("Products page accessed");
return View(products);
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
_logger.LogError(ex, "Error fetching products");
return RedirectToAction("Error", "Home");
}
}
}
}Step 4: Create ViewsCreate Views/Product/Index.cshtml:
@model IEnumerable<ECommerceApp.Models.Product>
<h1>E-Commerce Platform</h1>
<ul>
@foreach (var product in Model)
{
<li>@product.Name - $@product.Price</li>
}
</ul>Step 5: Set Up CI/CDUse the GitHub Actions workflow from the CI/CD section to deploy to Azure App Service.
Step 6: Add Application InsightsAlready configured in Program.cs. Monitor metrics in the Azure Portal.
Step 7: Deploy and TestDeploy the app to Azure App Service and verify:
Products are displayed.
Application Insights tracks requests and errors.
CI/CD pipeline automates deployments.
