.NET Porting in AWS



If you're Microsoft lover (like me), then this blog is good news for you in AWS cloud. DotNet Core is the future of .NET! Version 4.8 of the .NET Framework is the last major version to be released, and Microsoft is working towards 5.0 by end of this year.

Last week, AWS announced the Porting Assistant for .NET, a new tool that helps customers analyze and port their .NET Framework applications to .NET Core running on Linux. It assesses both the application source code and the full tree of public API and NuGet package dependencies to identify those incompatible with .NET Core and guides developers to compatible replacements when available.

Porting Assistant for .NET identifies incompatible .NET Core APIs and packages from your .NET Framework applications, and finds known replacements reducing the manual effort of searching for replaceable packages and APIs.

This framework works in 3 stages as depicted. 1. Scan, 2. Assessment, 3. Assisted porting
