AI-Native Microservices Architecture with .NET & Containers

Description

This course focuses on designing and implementing AI-native microservices architectures using .NET and container technologies. Participants will learn how to build distributed systems where AI capabilities are first-class components, integrated into services for intelligent decision-making and automation. The course covers microservices principles, containerization with Docker, orchestration patterns, and communication strategies across services. It also explores how to embed LLM-powered features such as reasoning, RAG, and tool invocation within microservices. Hands-on labs demonstrate how to design scalable, resilient systems using ASP.NET Core, messaging systems, and container platforms. Emphasis is placed on observability, security, and performance in AI-enabled distributed environments. By the end of the training, participants will be able to architect and deploy production-ready AI-native microservices systems.
