IdentityServer in Production

This course continues where our popular course Securing ASP.NET using OpenID Connect and IdentityServer ended, with a clear focus on getting a complete IdentityServer architecture up and running in a real live production environment. You will learn how to avoid many of the pitfalls and gotchas involved when you start your deployment journey.

When we say that this course is about deploying to production, we really mean it. In this course we will deploy the services that we create to the public internet, using things like real TLS certificates.

The solution that you will deploy live contains a client, an API and a fully-configured IdentityServer. We are especially proud that we don’t cheat or cut corners in this course.

Instead we will, for example:

• Store configuration data in separate configuration service
• Log to a separate logging server for analytics and visualization
• Use real HTTPS certificate
• Creating our own signing keys
  
• Use continuous deployment to deploy our services

This hands-on course contains an extensive set of exercises that will take you through all the steps involved to create a successful identity solution.
