I Can Run C# In Docker?

Docker is THE hot topic right now. .NET is open source. Does that mean they can work together?

Yes. Yes, it does. This session will teach you how to run a C# program in Docker.

Yes. Yes, you can. You can run your C# programs, including web sites, RESTful services, and anything else you can dream up, in a Docker container.

Starting with the very basics, this session will introduce you to microservices and Docker, and then demonstrate how to build a Docker image that will run a web site written in C# in a Docker container that is running Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL).

It’s a brave new world, where Microsoft hearts Linux and Red Hat loves .NET. Come out and take advantage of the union; learn some Docker, see RHEL running .NET, and leave with resources to help you along, including a zero-cost Developer’s copy of RHEL.

Docker.

Open source .NET.

This is huge.

I’m Director of Developer Experience for .NET on Linux at Red Hat, and this is a hot topic. I’ve taken the canonical demo, Music Store (github.com/aspnet/MusicStore) and have it running Docker.
