Medical system

Medical system is a small application build with ASP.NET 5 and EF to document medical records. User can store doctor, patient and consultation information in this application with their web browser. This is a proof of concept of how we can use microservice with ASP.NET 5.

This is influenced by .NET Microservices Sample Reference Application

Hosting

When a new release is created then this app is stored inside a docker image and push to docker hub through CI CD. Hosting in Azure is not done as a part of CI CD. That needs to be done manually.

• Create a new resource group in Azure
• In that resource group create the following resources
  • App Service Plan for Linux
  • Web App for Doctor service, Patient service, Consultation service, Web Gateway and Web Mvc
  • SQL Server
  • Database for Doctor service, Patient service and Consultation service
• Create tables in the databases for Doctor service, Patient service and Consultation service
• Update the connection strings in the web app configuration for Doctor service, Patient service and Consultation service
• Update api endpoint urls in Web Gateway and Web Mvc

Now open the Web App URL in web browser for Web Mvc and you should access the app.

The future plan is to deploy the services in AKS.
