Beyond Async and Await

2 days
AsyncWS - Version:1
Description
This is a 2-days workshop focusing on async and await theory and practice. You will gain deep understanding of async methods, how to use them right, best practices, and useful patterns. Although they seem easy on the surface, async methods and the await keyword are full of tricks and pitfalls that you need to remember in order to write efficient asynchronous code. This day is designed for developers currently using async and await for their systems, and also for developers who have experience with asynchronous programming using the TPL or other threading libraries.
Intended audience
Experienced .NET Developers, Team Leader and Architects
