The Unity Application Block (Unity) is a lightweight, extensible dependency injection container with optional support for instance and type interception. It facilitates building loosely coupled applications and provides developers with the following advantages:


  • Simplified object creation, especially for hierarchical object structures and dependencies.

  • Abstraction of requirements; this allows developers to specify dependencies at run time or in configuration and simplify management of crosscutting concerns.

  • Increased flexibility by deferring component configuration to the container.

  • Service location capability; this allows clients to store or cache the container.

  • Instance and type interception.
