A .NET application's journey on AWS
summary
Modernisation path shows three concrete outcomes: containerise to ECS on Fargate (demo moves from four tasks to two during a successful blue/green switch), push container images via CodeBuild/CodePipeline into ECR with artifacts in S3 and traffic load‑balanced by ALB, or refactor to Lambda using container images. Developer tooling is demonstrated: AWS Toolkit in Visual Studio publishes a .NET 6 container to Lambda, and migration helpers include App2Container, Porting Assistant for .NET and Microservice Extractor. Claim: Graviton can give ~40% better price/perf; App Runner is now in the Sydney region.
