C# Multithreaded and Parallel ProgrammingMost modern machines have dual-core processors. This means that the present-day computer has the ability to multitask. Using multiple cores means your applications can process data faster and be more responsive to users. However, to fully exploit this in your applications, you need to write multithreading code.
We will begin by covering some techniques that have been around since the beginning of .NET, including the BackgroundWorker component, timers, and the Thread class. We will use tasks, task factories, and parallel loops to develop multithreaded applications at a higher level than directly creating and managing individual threads. Finally, we will look at the tools Visual Studio provides for debugging parallel applications, common concurrent design patterns, and the latest updates in PLINQ and async. ...

Learning NServiceBus SagasNServiceBus (NSB) is the most popular Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) for C#. This learning guide will equip you with the skills to develop and design NSB sagas and NSB messaging. The first few chapters will discuss the basics of SOA, gradually leading you into the detailed topics of NSB.
In the next chapters, NSB platform services will be covered for monitoring, designing in Visual Studio, and operational pulses on NSB. Many example architectures will be explained using ASP.NET Model-View-Controllers, Entity Frameworks, NHibernate, MSMQ, RabbitMQ, SQL Server queues, ActiveMQ, and MongoDB. Finally, endpoints will be extended using sagas to integrate them into secure protocols such as Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP) and C# web services.
By the end of this book, you will be able to design, build, and test NServiceBus sagas and perform message handling. ...
