.NET

azureedge.net dotnet CDN URLs will cease to work sometime next year after January 15th.

One of two Azure CDN providers was Edgio, which filed for bankruptcy. CDN migration is in progress.

We expect that most users will not be directly affected, however, it is critical that you validate if you are affected and to watch for downtime or other kinds of breakage.

We maintain multiple Content Delivery Network (CDN) instances for delivering .NET builds. Some end in azureedge.net. These domains are hosted by edg.io, which will soon cease operations due to bankruptcy. We are required to migrate to a new CDN and will be using new domains going forward.

Affected domains:

• dotnetcli.azureedge.net
• dotnetbuilds.azureedge.net

Unaffected domains:

• dotnet.microsoft.com
• download.visualstudio.microsoft.com

• Update dotnetcli.azureedge.net to builds.dotnet.microsoft.com
• Update dotnetcli.blob.core.windows.net to builds.dotnet.microsoft.com

We also noticed that there is a lot of use of our storage account: dotnetcli.blob.core.windows.net. Please also search for it. The storage account is unaffected, however, it would be much better for everyone if you used our new CDN. It will deliver better performance.

Earlier this year I gave this talk which is about how programmers can get the most of the Fediverse, particularly for dotnet/MAUI developers - some of the killer features which are available and how to use them. The focus of the examples are with dotnet/MAUI, but these things would undoubtedly also be available for other languages/ecosystems, I was just using dotnet/MAUI to illustrate the underlying functionality available to us here. This recording would be good for anyone who isn't familiar with these features (maybe anyone you want to convince to come here, or just if you feel you don't know everything that is available).

The first part of the recording is a different talk about MAUI, and the first link below will be where my talk starts, and then some more links for other key points, if you just want to see the parts you don't already know about.

Following these recording links will be links to resources that I talked about...
