Avoiding distributed transactions (DTC) with SQL Server and async code

Wrapping async code in transaction scope is not as straightforward as sync one. Let's say we have some simple code: await using (var connection = new SqlConnection(connectionString)) { await using var command = new SqlCommand("select 1", connection); await connection.OpenAsync(); await command.ExecuteScalarAsync(); } We can wrap it in transaction scope and test that it still works: using var ts = new TransactionScope(); await using (var connection = new SqlConnection(connectionString)) { await using var command = new SqlCommand("select 1", connection); await connection.OpenAsync(); await command.ExecuteScalarAsync(); } ts.Complete(); But if you try to run this code you will get: "A TransactionScope must be disposed on the same thread that it was created" exception.  The fix is easy: we need to add TransactionScopeAsyncFlowOption.Enabled option to the constructor: var options = new TransactionOptions { IsolationLevel = IsolationLevel.ReadCom...

Using MinIO as on premises object storage with .NET and S3 SDK

Ever tried to find a blob store that can work on-premises as well as in a cloud, support meta-data, scale well and have .NET client libraries? I did and stopped on MinIO . Well, honestly to my surprise I was quite limited in my choice. It's free, it's open-source, it can work on-premises and has helm charts for k8s. The best thing is that its S3 compatible, so if one day you move to the cloud the only thing you`ll need to change in your code is a connection string. The easiest way to start is by starting a docker image. Pull the image: docker pull minio/minio start for testing (data will be part of the container, so after a restart, all files will be gone docker run -p 9000:9000 minio/minio server /data Or start with a mapped image in windows: docker run -p 9000:9000 --name minio1 \ -v C:\data:/data \ minio/minio server /data When the server is up you can access it by http://127.0.0.1:9000/minio/login default user/password: minioadmin/minioadmin Working wi...

Accessing VM Host (localhost) from minikube

Time to time I need to access resources outside of your Kubernetes cluster. It can be some .net framework app that I can`t put in linux container or shared db, like SQL server. We can easily access resources in kube via kubefwd or ingress\exposed port. However, that doesn't work backwards. Services in k8s cluster can`t just access your machine, they need to know VM`s host IP. The main point here is finding an ip of the host machine: $ route -n | grep ^0.0.0.0 | awk "{ print \$2 }" 172.17.8.1 In order to run in from powershell we need to escape quotes: minikube ssh 'route -n | grep ^0.0.0.0 | awk \"{ print \$2 }\"' 172.17.8.1 What can it be use it for? I can setup that ip in PODS connection string but I don’t want to update every pod when my ip changes (a typical problem with hyberV). It would be much better to reference resources by dns name and let dns service decide how to resolve that resource. So let’s make a ‘dns-service’ that wil...
