ASP.NET MVC: HTTP Request Life Cycle

- [Instructor] Hi, I'm Janan Siam and I've been leading software teams in building web applications that solve problems for a broad range of industries. At the heart of an MVC application is the request life cycle. It begins when an HTTP request is received from the client and ends when the HTTP response is sent back. By evaluating the life cycle, you'll learn how to insert custom functionality at nearly every step.

In this course, we'll explore important events at both the application and request level. We'll learn about HTTP modules and handlers, then cover the essential aspects of the routing system. Our journey will continue with controller initialization and action invocation. Finally, we'll examine how views are initialized and rendered as we wrap up with result execution. I'm excited to share this important information with you so let's get started.
