ASP.NET Core 3 brings a very interesting new feature: Worker Service. What is Worker Service? It’s an ASP.NET Core template that allows you to create hosted long-running background services. These background services implement the IHostedService interface, so they are called “hosted services”. What is interesting is that dependency injection is available natively, which was not the case with a Windows Service created with TopShelf.

In .NET core microsoft has added new template worker service for running background jobs.

.NET Core Worker Service, we created a .NET Core Worker Service and then showed how to host it as a Windows Service. This week we will be taking the application created in last week’s post and publishing it to Azure.
