- IDistributedApplicationBuilder
The builder for the distributed application.

Examples
The following example creates an Azure Cache for Redis resource and referencing that resource in a .NET project.
var builder = DistributedApplication.CreateBuilder(args);
var cache = builder.AddAzureRedis("cache");
builder.AddProject<Projects.ProductService>()
.WithReference(cache);
builder.Build().Run();
Remarks
By default, the Azure Cache for Redis resource is configured to use Microsoft Entra ID (Azure Active Directory) for authentication. This requires changes to the application code to use an azure credential to authenticate with the resource. See https://github.com/Azure/Microsoft.Azure.StackExchangeRedis for more information.
You can use the WithAccessKeyAuthentication(IResourceBuilder<AzureRedisCacheResource>) method to configure the resource to use access key authentication.
