Cloudbrew 2022–Advanced telemetry with Azure Monitor Application Insights

This weekend I had the honor to speak at CloudBrew, a 2 day conference organized by AZUG, the Belgium Microsoft Azure User Group.

I really enjoyed the conference; great sessions, nice location, good food. I had the time to chat up with some other community members.

Advanced telemetry with Azure Monitor Application Insights

I did a session about Application Insights:

You've added the Application Insights NuGet or NPM package to your application, but now what? This demo-driven session will show you how to get the maximum out of Application Insights and achieve true insights in your application behavior and performance. Profiling, dependency tracking, snapshots, extensibility, availability,... no feature remains untouched.

In case you are looking for my slides, they can be found here: https://github.com/wullemsb/presentations/tree/main/CloudBrew%20-%202022

During my presentation I used 2 demo applications. They are both an adaption of the eShopOnWeb reference application.

One application shows how to implement the Application Insights SDK in an ASP.Net Core Razor Pages and Blazor application:

The other application shows how to implement OpenTelemetry in your ASP.NET Core application and send this telemetry data to Application insights:

I’ve written a list of related blog posts(and more will come). Check them all out here: https://bartwullems.blogspot.com/search?q=application+insights

Help! I accidently enabled HSTS–on localhost

I ran into an issue after accidently enabling HSTS for a website on localhost. This was not an issue for the original website that was running in IIS and had a certificate configured. But when I tried to run an Angular app a little bit later on http://localhost:4200 the browser redirected me immediately to https://localhost . Whoops! That was not what I wanted in this case. To fix it, you need to go the network settings of your browser, there are available at: chrome://net-internals/#hsts edge://net-internals/#hsts brave://net-internals/#hsts Enter ‘localhost’ in the domain textbox under the Delete domain security policies section and hit Delete . That should do the trick…
