How to resolve “Windows Principal functionality is not supported on this platform” in Azure App function

  Introduction I have designed an azure app function to process azure service bus queues and topics. The handlers in azure app function are aimed to process service bus messages into SQL database records through handlers. Whereas app functions are built on top of the code-first approach entity framework core 3.1. whenever I post message to Service bus topics I got “Windows principal functionality is not supported on this platform”. Let me explain you how I resolved this problem in this article Problem SQL Server comes handy with Mixed mode authentication where you can use either windows authentication or SQL Server authentication.

Hybrid Cloud Print Design

Introduction This article describes about the hybrid cloud printing. Means connect the on-premises printer device to azure cloud and make it available anywhere to the employees of organization. Let us deep dive into this article. Overview On Premises Printer Server (Windows Server 2016 and above) Let us assume that our organization has a printer and certain user group has access to that printer. we will have active directory for on-premises from where we control their identity and authorization functionality. Even the printer can be shared within on-premises server between user groups.so, their intranet applications can able to easily access. This total functionality of resource sharing to users can be controlled by IT administrator. Why Azure Hybrid cloud print Think that if the organization wants to share their printer resource to their users outer to premises, they need expose their printer to internet. If they explore their printer without restrictions, ma

How to resolve ASP.NET core web API 2 mins timeout issue

Introduction We are in the new world of microservices and cross-platform applications which will be supported for multiple platforms and multiple heterogeneous teams can work on the same application. I like ASP.NET Core by the way its groomed to support modern architecture and adhere to the software principles. I am a big fan of dot net and now I become the craziest fan after seeing the sophisticated facility by dot net core to support infrastructure level where we can easily perform vertical and horizontal scaling. It very important design aspect is to keep things simple and short and by the way, RESTFul applications are build and it is a powerful mantra for REST-based application and frameworks. Some times we need to overrule some principles and order to handle some situations. I would like to share my situation of handling HTTP long polling to resolve the ASP.Net core 2 mins issue. What is HTTP Long polling? In the RESTFul term, when a client asks for a query from the serv

How to Resolve ASP.NET Core Key Protection Ring Problem in AWS Lambda

Introduction When it comes to server less web application design using asp.net core razor pages, we definitely need to consider a factor of data protection key management and its lifetime in asp.net core. I developed a site using AWS toolkit of ASP.NET Core Razor Pages. The main advantage of ASP.NET Core is cross-platform from where we can deploy our application in MAC, Linux or windows. I deployed my site initially in IIS Server from which I got the results as expected .but later period I decided to host my site in AWS Lambda in order to meet our client requirement. Strangely, I got unexpected behavior from my site. I just refer the cloud information Lambda Log to identify or pinpoint the case, I got the error Information like “Error Unprotecting the session cookie” from the log. In this article, I tried to explain the root cause of the problem and its solution to overcome such kind of issue. Data Protection in ASP.NET Core This is feature in ASP.NET Core which acts as repl

Which linq method performs better: Where(expression).FirstorDefault() vs .FirstOrDefault(expression)

 Introduction When it comes to LINQ, we always have multiple options to execute the query for the same scenario. Choosing correct one is always challenging aspect and debatable one. In one of our previous articles   Any Vs Count  , we have done performance testing about best LINQ methods over .NET types. In this article, I would like to share about  Where(expression).FirstorDefault() vs .FirstOrDefault(expression) Approaches Performance testing for  Where(expression).FirstorDefault() vs .FirstOrDefault(expression) is very interesting IEnumerable<T> or ICollcetion<T>  .FirstOrDefault(expression) is better than  Where(expression).FirstorDefault() Public API To check the performance, I need some amount of data which should already available. So I decided to choose this  public api .
