My product is built with C# .NET too. However I'm not bought into the Microsoft platform at all. Example: Nancy[0] for REST APIs, Postgres for persistence (with Dapper[1] of course), ElasticSearch and so on.

Recently turned off my last Windows Server, I've converted all of the services into docker (mono) containers and making use of Rancher[2] for orchestration.

I am also using Node.js as an API gateway which fits in quite well.

I don't even know if some of these tools are made up or not anymore.

Still sounds made up.

It sounds even more made-up to me now...

I was under the impression IIS was leaps and bounds better than Linux based .net web servers. Thoughts on this having experienced the alternatives?

Nancy plays a lot nicer with "not IIS". With .net core it seems like IIS is destined to be a thing of the past anyway.

It may be better from a technical standpoint but unnecessary and less good depending on circumstances.

Sounds like you've got far too much going on there to be classified as boring. :)
