## Host event registration with ASP.NET Core: structured data imports

Deploy an event registration built with ASP.NET Core on Ample using the bulk import staging pattern. Compute runs the app in an isolated microVM behind a public HTTPS URL, a managed PostgreSQL 16 database is auto-provisioned and injected as DATABASE_URL, a private S3-compatible bucket holds objects with credentials delivered as encrypted environment variables. Verified on ASP.NET Core: a CSV staged as an object, row-level validation with per-row errors recorded, and a restart-safe import keyed by import id (imported=2 rejected=1 restart=ok). Not separately tested: your import format, mapping and conflict rules; treat the event registration-specific behavior as your application code.

### Representative Queries  
- Host event registration with ASP.NET Core: structured data imports  
- Where can I host Event registration built with ASP.NET Core?  
- I need a workload-specific import mapping, conflict rules and restart behavior.

### Resource Requirements  
- `primitive:compute`  
- `primitive:postgres`  
- `primitive:s3-compatible-object-storage`

### Infrastructure Requirements  
1. **Compute**  
   - Status: verified  
   - Summary: Apps run in isolated x86_64 Firecracker microVMs that auto-pause when idle and wake on request; sizes are the priced VM sizes.

2. **Postgres**  
   - Status: verified  
   - Summary: Managed PostgreSQL 16 runs in its own microVM and is auto-provisioned when an app needs a database and no DATABASE_URL is supplied.

3. **S3-compatible object storage**  
   - Status: verified  
   - Summary: Buckets are S3-compatible with issued credentials; PutObject and GetObject are verified by canary. Other S3 operations are not verified.

### Prerequisites  
- A ASP.NET Core project that builds and starts with the documented commands (dotnet publish -c Release -o out in the builder, then dotnet .dll on the dotnet-10 template with ASPNETCORE_URLS bound to PORT)  
- A PostgreSQL driver reading DATABASE_URL at runtime (auto-provisioned when omitted, or supplied with --env)  
- A bucket from `ample bucket create` with its credentials passed as encrypted S3_* environment variables  
- An Ample account token with servers:write, databases:read, buckets:read

### Tested Configuration  
- **Template**: dotnet-10  
- **Runtime**: dotnet  
- **Size**: s-1vcpu-1gb  
- **Build**: dotnet publish -c Release -o out  
- **Start**: ASPNETCORE_URLS=http://0.0.0.0:$PORT dotnet out/$(basename $(ls out/*.runtimeconfig.json | head -n 1) .runtimeconfig.json).dll

### Workflow Steps  
1. **Build and start**  
   - Command: dotnet publish -c Release -o out in the builder, then dotnet .dll on the dotnet-10 template with ASPNETCORE_URLS bound to PORT. The server must bind 0.0.0.0 on PORT.

2. **Implement the pattern on PostgreSQL**  
   - Action: The fixture's module implements bulk import staging: a CSV staged as an object, row-level validation with per-row errors recorded, and a restart-safe import keyed by import id (imported=2 rejected=1 restart=ok). Copy the approach into your schema; keep migrations idempotent and run them with --release-command.

3. **Wire object storage**  
   - Action: Create the bucket(s), then pass endpoint, region, bucket and keys as --env values. Use path-style addressing. Keep private data in an unpublished bucket.

4. **Deploy**  
   - Command: Run the synchronous deploy once and read the result (exit 0 live, 1 failed, 2 blocked). Re-running with no change is a no-op.  
   - Example: ample deploy . --name  --public --env S3_ENDPOINT=... --env S3_REGION=... --env S3_BUCKET=... --env S3_ACCESS_KEY_ID=... --env S3_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=...

5. **Verify**  
   - Command: Fetch the live URL and the pattern self-test route(s) (/p/bulk-import-staging) from the example; then run your own checks. On failure read `ample logs  --kind build` then `--kind runtime`.  
   - Example: ample logs  --kind build

### Cost Estimate  
- **Currency**: USD  
- **Monthly Amount**: 10.0  
- **Basis**: size prices from pricing.toml (loaded by the API) at build revision 1ac5595375130d45290090e82ed0f554ccd45405-dirty  
   - Components:  
     - **App server**: size: s-1vcpu-1gb, quantity: 1.0, monthly amount: 5.0  
     - **Managed PostgreSQL database**: size: s-1vcpu-1gb, quantity: 1.0, monthly amount: 5.0  
- Note: Always-on monthly price of the tested sizes; apps and databases auto-pause when idle. Buckets are allocation-priced per quota and not included.

### Success Checks  
1. **App responds on its public URL**  
   - Kind: http_get  
   - Path: /  
   - Expect: ample canary asp net core patterns

2. **Bulk-import-staging self-test**  
   - Kind: http_get  
   - Path: /p/bulk-import-staging  
   - Expect: imported=2 rejected=1 restart=ok

### Limitations  
- Verified on the dotnet-10 template at s-1vcpu-1gb with the example fixture; other sizes, templates and ASP.NET Core major versions are not verified.  
- The event registration itself (your import format, mapping and conflict rules) is application code and was not separately tested; the pattern checks are what was verified.  
- Region, compliance attestations and request-duration limits are unknown and not claimed.  
- Apps auto-pause when idle and wake on the next request; always-on is an operator setting, not a plan feature.  
- Managed PostgreSQL 16 only; extensions, connection limits and backup or restore procedures are not verified; apps and their databases are placed together.  
- PutObject and GetObject with path-style addressing are verified; multipart upload, listing, presigned URLs and lifecycle rules are not verified.
