Naming factories “class”factory always a good idea?

Hi everyone, I’m just learning about design patterns, and all code examples I’ve seen highlight their implementation with obvious examples such as “DogFactory” etc. I’m wondering if this is usually done in practice, or if the class name should instead represent its purpose in the code, for example: A factory class that resolves the manufacturer of an item from its properties, and returns that manufacturer’s specific implementation of IVendorThing, would I name that factory “VendorThingFactory” or something like “VendorThingResolver”?

Return Value on Entity Modification

Hi everyone, I'm creating a class library that contains my entity framework models and surrounding business logic for my project. I am creating a method for modifying one property of my entity. I am wondering if it is best practice to have this method return the entire object, a bool for success/fail, the changed value, or nothing. My thinking is that since the method is being passed a reference to the entity stored in the database, I shouldn't have to return the full entity as the change has been saved, but I just don't know what sort of standard to apply in my code and if it will have any negative cosequences in the future of the codebase.

Leaving website in "Pending" for too long

Hi everyone, we are currently in the process of preparing a customer's site to move to cloudflare DNS, it has over 100 records so we are just triple-double-triple checking everything before updating the nameservers. I seem to recall that there is a limit somewhere for how long you can leave a website in this state, and if you exceed this limit, cloudflare assumes you dont own the domain and will block you from transferring it, is this true?

Hiding publicly reachable Azure services behind Cloudflare

Hi everyone, I have some services such as blob storage in Azure that I want to put behind Cloudflare's firewall for caching/rate limiting. So far I have got my azure blobs proxied behind cloudflare with full https working. My main question is, since the origin hostname from Azure is still publicly accessible, what are the chances that a bot or web scraper can find it to completely bypass the setup I have in Cloudflare, is there a way to lock down my Azure resources so that they are only accessible if they are routed through my Cloudflare?

Best practice for Database EF Migrations (Auto v Manual)

Hi everyone, I have written an API in ASP.Net that connects to a postgresql database. I have so far setup Github Actions to automatically push new releases to DockerHub, and have my host run checks for new versions to pull down. The next part I am looking at is the database, if I add an EF Core migration, what is the best way to apply this to the database? I understand I can have this migration compiled into a standalone binary that connects to the DB and applies it, or can have it deployed as a .sql script. I am unsure what is the best way to go about A) SQL script or standalone binary to apply migration, and B) do I set it up to apply migrations entirely automated whenever a new one is required, or is that bad practice in production? I currently have the API configured to apply the migration to the DB on startup, but given I am trying to design this as if it is a production system that has multiple instances of the API running, I think it would be bad practice for them to all try and apply a migration at once.

Azure Table Client Query Filter not evaluating correctly

Hi everyone, I am building an app with Azure Functions written in .NET 8, and one part of the app is a cleanup function that deletes items older than 1 week, but when I query the table for items older than one week, it doesn't return anything, despite verifying that there are multiple entities in the table with timestamps older than a week, I have confirmed removing the filter returns all items, so there is something wrong with the expression itself, but I can't figure it out for the life of me. The snippet of code is as follows:

    DateTimeOffset oneWeekAgo = DateTimeOffset.UtcNow.AddDays(-7);

    string QueryFilter = $"Timestamp lt datetime'{oneWeekAgo:s}'";
    
    Pageable<item> queryResults = tableClient.Query<item>(filter: QueryFilter); // is currently returning nothing

    DateTimeOffset oneWeekAgo = DateTimeOffset.UtcNow.AddDays(-7);

    string QueryFilter = $"Timestamp lt datetime'{oneWeekAgo:s}'";
    
    Pageable<item> queryResults = tableClient.Query<item>(filter: QueryFilter); // is currently returning nothing
