Modern .NET
Modern .NET is not the .NET you remember.
The "slow, Windows-only, enterprise-boring" stereotype was true a decade ago. It hasn't been for years.
.NET Framework 4.x
What people still picture
Runtime
Windows Server only
Deployment
IIS, MSI installers
Web stack
Web Forms, WCF, ASMX
Config
web.config XML
DI
None built-in
Async
Bolted on later
Performance
Slower than Java
Support
Maintenance only
.NET 8 (modern)
What we build with today
Runtime
Windows, Linux, macOS, containers
Deployment
Containers, K8s, App Service, serverless
Web stack
Minimal APIs, gRPC, SignalR

appsettings.json + IOptions

Self-assessment
Which of these describes your .NET today?
Five questions. Each "yes" points to a specific service we offer. If none apply, your stack is probably fine — and we'll say so.
Still on .NET Framework 4.x?
If yes
Migration candidate
Modern .NET is 2–3x faster and runs on Linux containers.
Windows Server only in production?
If yes
Container candidate
Modern .NET runs anywhere. Cut Windows licensing costs.
No automated tests on critical paths?
If yes
Test-first retrofit
We write tests around what you have before touching it.
WCF or ASMX services in production?
If yes
gRPC replacement
Modern RPC — 10x faster than WCF, works on any platform.
Hand-rolled dependency injection?
If yes
MS.DI migration
First-party DI in every modern .NET app. No custom containers.
Reference architecture
The enterprise .NET architecture we ship.
Not a specific design — a reference. Every project adjusts it. But the layers, boundaries, and dependencies stay the same.

Enterprise patterns
Six patterns serious .NET shops expect.
Not every project needs all six. Every engineer on our bench can defend when to use each — and when not to.
CQRS with MediatR
Commands and queries separated. Handlers are small, testable, single-purpose.
Clean Architecture
Domain at the centre. Application, infrastructure, API on the outside. Dependencies point inward.
Domain-Driven Design
Entities, value objects, aggregates, domain events — modelled to match the business.
Repository + Unit of Work
Persistence isolated from domain. EF Core transactional boundaries made explicit.
Vertical Slice
Features over layers. Each slice ships independently.
Strangler Fig migration
Legacy wrapped behind facades and gradually replaced — never a big-bang rewrite.
Skills matrix
What each seniority level owns.
Not every task needs a senior. This is the honest picture of what each level can and can't do.
| Area | Mid | Senior | Lead |
|---|---|---|---|
| Feature work | Owns with light guidance | Owns end-to-end | Sets the pattern |
| Tests | Writes unit + integration | Enforces coverage in CI | Designs test strategy |
| Code review | Reviews peers' PRs | Reviews critical paths | Defines review standards |
| Architecture | Follows the pattern | Proposes changes | Owns the architecture |
| Performance | Measures with profiler | Tunes + benchmarks | Sets perf budgets |
| Mentoring | — | Mentors juniors | Leads the team |
| Azure / infra | Uses the pipeline | Configures + tunes | Designs the platform |
| Legacy migration | Migrates slices | Runs strangler phases | Owns the migration plan |

First two weeks
What your first two weeks look like.
No long ramp-up. Our .NET engineers ship something useful in their first week and own a feature by week two.
Access & kick-off
Repo clone, environment setup, stand-up introduction. Slack, GitHub, and CI access confirmed.
Code walkthrough
Walk-through of the codebase with your team. Notes on architecture, pain points, and quick wins.
First small PR
Config, logging, or a test around existing code. Something shipped that proves the workflow works.
First feature ticket
Real feature work merged. Reviewed by your team, not just ours.
Owns a vertical slice
End-to-end ownership of a feature — API, domain, tests, and Azure deployment.
Legacy migration playbook
Five phases from .NET Framework to .NET 8.
We don't do big-bang rewrites. Every migration follows the same Strangler Fig playbook — measured, reversible, and honest about risk.
Audit
Inventory services, dependencies, and test coverage. Risk per component.
Facade
Wrap legacy behind a routing layer. New endpoints build alongside.
Parallel run
Both stacks run side-by-side. Outputs compared automatically.
Cutover
Traffic shifted slice by slice. Legacy stays warm for rollback.
Decommission
Old services retired. Dead code removed. Cost drops.
Tech Stack
The tools our .NET engineers master.
Also fluent in
Code review standards
Six things enforced in every pull request.
Not aspirations. Enforced by CI. If it can't be enforced automatically, it's not a standard.
Nullable reference types on
Every project. No implicit nulls. Warnings treated as errors in CI.
Central package management
One place for all NuGet versions. No 40 different Newtonsoft.Json versions.
Architecture tests
NetArchTest enforces dependency direction. Layer violations break the build.
Integration tests with Testcontainers
Real SQL Server, Redis, and message brokers — not mocks pretending to be them.
BenchmarkDotNet before optimising
No guessing. Measure, then change one thing at a time.
Serilog structured logging
Every log line queryable. Correlation IDs through every request and job.
Azure-native
The eight Azure services we ship with most often.
.NET + Azure is the shortest path from code to production in the enterprise. We know the platform deeply — not just "we can deploy to it."
App Service
Managed hosting for APIs and web apps.
Azure Functions
Serverless event-driven workloads.
Service Bus
Enterprise messaging — queues and topics.
Azure SQL
Managed SQL Server with HA and compliance.
Key Vault
Secrets, keys, certificates with audit trails.
Entra ID
SSO, MFA, and conditional access.
App Insights
Distributed tracing and log analytics.
Container Apps
Kubernetes without the K8s.
Regulatory frameworks
Frameworks our .NET builds help satisfy.
We don't certify you. We build systems where the compliance evidence exists — because it's baked in, not bolted on.
PCI DSS
Payment card data — encryption, access control, audit logging.
ISO 27001
Information security management — policy, risk, monitoring.
SOC 2 Type II
Security, availability, and confidentiality controls.
HIPAA
Patient data — encryption, access logs, BAA-compatible hosting.
GDPR
EU data protection — user rights, data flow, portability.
Data Protection Act 843
Ghana's data protection law — registration and processing rules.
Client feedback
What our clients
actually say.
“The move to SikaNet CBS was a bigger shift than I expected — but the right one. Before, our Susu collectors were on paper and every BOG report took us days to assemble. Now collections appear in the office before a collector even finishes their route, and the reports are just there. The team understood our business from day one.”
David Awuni
Founder, Adwumapa Microfinance
“We were cautious about moving patient records online. The on-prem approach changed that — everything stays inside the health center, nothing goes to a foreign cloud. Our clinicians now retrieve a file in seconds instead of ten minutes, and every entry has an audit trail behind it.”
Medical Director
Sekyedumase Health Center
“The patient management system they developed has streamlined our ophthalmology department. Appointment scheduling, patient records, and referral tracking are now seamless — saving us hours of administrative work every day.”
Isaac Adu
Ophthalmologist, Ghana Health Service
