ChefConf 2018 Session: Building and Running ASP.Net Applications in Habitat
Matt Wrock - Software Developer, Chef You have likely heard about Habitat and may have seen how it adds automation to application stacks such as Node, Ruby or Java. This presentation will focus on what Habitat looks like in a Windows world. We will look at authoring a Powershell based plan and building a Habitat package inside of a Windows container based Habitat Studio. We will build a simple ASP.Net application designed to run on IIS consuming data from a Sql Server database. We will also be exporting this application to a Windows container. We will be highlighting areas where Habitat development differs on Windows, point out some possibly unexpected gotchas and introduce some Windows specific habitat plan development patterns. In the end, listeners should walk away with a clear picture of how Habitat can fit in to their Windows development workflow.
