What you need for this book

You will need Visual Studio 2013 or 2015 to run the code samples. For most of the chapters, it will be enough to use the free Visual Studio Community 2013/2015 editions, but the performance test samples will require the Test/Ultimate or Enterprise editions. However, if you cannot use this, it is possible to download the free Apache bench tool to run performance tests as described in the book.
