Unveiling Asynchronous & Parallel Programming in .NET Blog Series
Task-Based Asynchronous Programming is an excellent innovation in the .NET Platform. It abstracts away much lower-level work so that we can focus solely on the business logic. For example, almost all the time, we don’t need to handle threads manually.
Misconceptions:
However, sometimes I find some misconceptions among .NET developers. Some common examples of misconceptions are, ‘Task.Run() always creates a new thread’ or ‘ASP.NET Core assigns a thread to each new request,’ etc.
Also, most developers are unaware of what happens under the hood.
Reason:
The reason may be that only a few resources discuss what happens under the hood, and they are too scattered to understand and connect for beginner developers.
Target Audience:
Here we will discuss what happens under the hood of Task-Based Asynchronous Programming.
This is not an introductory series about asynchronous programming rather, here, we will discuss what happens under the hood. So we are assuming that the readers already know the basics of asynchronous & Parallel programming, tasks, async/await, etc.
But if you are still confused if you met the prerequisite, you may start reading, and whenever you find something unfamiliar, just learn that and continue again.
