Introducing filters
Middleware is a powerful concept in ASP.NET Core; properly designed middleware can reduce the burden of request processing in the application. ASP.NET Core applications, either in the form of MVC or web API, work on MVC middleware, dealing with Authentication, Authorization, Routing, Localization, Model binding, and so on.
ASP.NET MVC apps contain Controllers and Actions, and controlling their execution would be great if required.
Filters help us to run code before or after a particular stage in the execution pipeline. They can be configured to run globally, per-controller, or per-action.
