TECHNOLOGY CAPABILITY

.NET for reliable APIs, domain logic, and enterprise integrations

We use .NET when products need strongly typed services, long maintenance cycles, and Azure-friendly backend delivery.

ARCHITECTURE FIT

Where .NET fits in the stack

Backend choice aligned to domain complexity, team skills, and enterprise context.

Typical .NET placement

  1. Web / mobile clients

    React, Next.js, or partners

  2. API gateway (optional)

    Auth, routing, limits

  3. .NET services

    APIs, domain logic, workers

  4. Messaging (optional)

    Service Bus, RabbitMQ

  5. PostgreSQL / SQL

    Transactional stores

Common use cases

  • Enterprise SaaS APIs

    Strong typing
  • Background processing

    Workers
  • ERP / CRM integrations

    Adapters
  • Compliance-sensitive domains

    Audit trails

DELIVERY CAPABILITIES

What we build with .NET

Services and workers shaped by bounded contexts and integration boundaries.

  • ASP.NET Core APIs

    Outcome

    REST or minimal APIs with validation, auth, and versioning.

    • REST
    • Auth
    • Versioning
  • Domain-centric services

    Outcome

    Business rules in testable modules, not scattered controllers.

    • DDD tactical
    • MediatR
    • Validation
  • Data access layers

    Outcome

    EF Core or Dapper with migration and tenant-aware queries.

    • EF Core
    • Migrations
    • Tenants
  • Workers and schedulers

    Outcome

    Queue consumers, outbox relays, and scheduled jobs.

    • Hosted services
    • Queues
    • Outbox

STACK DECISIONS

Architecture decisions for .NET

When .NET is the right default, and when another runtime is cleaner.

When we recommend it

  • Enterprise buyers expect Microsoft stack compatibility
  • Domain logic is dense and benefits from strong typing
  • Azure-native delivery is part of the roadmap

When we do not recommend it

  • Team has no .NET skills and no plan to build them
  • Simple CRUD MVP with no compliance pressure (Node may ship faster)
  • Serverless-only micro-functions are the entire backend

Alternatives to consider

  • Node.js / TypeScript

    Small team already standardized on JS full stack

  • Go services

    Minimal services with extreme throughput focus

  • Serverless functions

    Sparse event handlers without shared domain model
