Riassunto

Your Entity Framework Core application may work perfectly with a small database—but what happens when data grows, traffic increases, queries slow down, and production users begin feeling the delay?

High-Performance Entity Framework Core 10 gives .NET developers a practical, step-by-step guide to finding and fixing EF Core performance problems with evidence instead of guesswork.

You do not need prior experience with indexing, execution plans, benchmarking, connection pooling, concurrency, or database diagnostics. If you already understand basic C#, LINQ, DbContext, relationships, migrations, and CRUD, this book will guide you progressively into professional EF Core performance engineering.

Using the realistic FulfilmentOps application, you will learn how to inspect generated SQL, diagnose bottlenecks, reduce unnecessary database work, improve query design, optimize high-volume operations, and validate every change through measurement.

Mistakes and unexpected results are treated as part of the learning process. Each chapter builds confidence through small, measurable improvements that show not only what to optimize, but why it works.
