.NET Aspire and GenAI Develop Distributed Architectures (Udemy.com)

What was really good: All the sections up to before deployment to Azure. All the prior sections were well thought out, and it was easy to understand and appreciate the benefits of using Aspire. Thank you. What went wrong: [Disclaimer] I skipped deployment to Azure as I had assumed that if I proceeded to finish the remaining sections, I would get to deploy a "complete" solution. I was wrong. [Another very important disclaimer] DO NOT (and I repeat, DO NOT) start the final two sections (Gen AI & Semantic search) without going through his "GenAI for .NET: Build LLM Apps with OpenAI and Ollama" course. The current sections are outdated and can very easily discourage you from completing this course. I was lucky to pause and head there before coming back to finish this course. There you will also find a more complete microservices solution which he uses to deploy AI functionalities very well.

Amazing course by Mehmet Ozkaya that walks you through how to use cutting-edge technologies in your next AI Cloud-Native application. Mehmet is an amazing teacher both in explaining the theory without overdoing it and showing us how to implement it afterwards, again without overdoing it. One of the best courses I have followed recently!

I dont think anyone will deploy an application to production for enterprise workloads. Instead, If this course if based on Azure AI Foundry or any other Cloud based Gen AI platform, that could have been more usedful for the targetted audiance. Similarly, Like the authors other courses, here also the same problmen of too much , repeated theory present. Hope he will take this feedback and making corrections in future.

The course on .NET Aspire is really well structured, the main focus on all the sections is only related to how things are working with .NET Aspire Instructor explained topic very clearly with real world examples. This is going to help me a lot in my professional career. Thank you

This is a new concept. Even when you have problems in proper english pronunciation ,which makes it really problematic to follow what you are saying. Over that not sure why you are running like you have promised to complete the videos within minimum time limit. You have good knowledge on the subject but the course becomes poor if you do not work on pronunciation and proper delivery. Please speak at a bit slow pace.

Outstanding course. Learnt lot of new things. This is a must-have course if you want to integrate AI capabilities into your existing .NET Application. At the same time, it gives a very detailed look into .NET Aspire that Microsoft is really pushing for developing microservices. Great Job Mehmet and look forward to more courses from you

This was an excellent course on integrating a number of technologies via Aspire to develop micros services and implement Gen AI. Material was well organized and well presented in a manner that was easy to follow. It could be useful in the future to have material on embedding vector data into a persistent database, perhaps SQL Server 2025 or qdrant. Also, the technology is fast moving so changes to newer versions of nuget packages can break the existing code. Just something to be aware of.

This course was truly amazing! I especially enjoyed the sections on Ollama and Vector Databases—they were incredibly insightful and well-explained. Looking forward to seeing more content like this in the future!

This course provides a solid foundation for understanding the capabilities of Aspire and, more importantly, demonstrates how Microsoft.Extensions.AI can be integrated into modern .NET applications. The hands-on section on semantic search is especially useful, showing how it can improve search and retrieval features in your projects. Note: The Microsoft AI-related packages are still evolving. Frequent breaking changes between versions can make them tricky to adopt and maintain. More stability and clearer versioning would definitely help.

The course was basic and easy to follow along, making it ideal for beginners. However, I wish there had been more hands-on web development content to practice what was taught. Overall, it's a good introduction to .NET Aspire and GenAI for those starting out.
