Make use of the global exception handler

• This exception handler wraps your entire application and catches any unhandled exceptions.
• At a minimum it should probably:
  • log the exception,
  • show a 500 error page.
• If this is your desired behavior in case of exception, do not catch the exception - keep your code clean and allow the exception to bubble up to the global handler.

Don’t

try
{
    MyCriticalOperation();
}
catch (AgodaIsDownException ex)
{
    Log.Error(ex); // the global exception handler will do this anyway
    throw;
}

Do

// simply:
MyCriticalOperation();
