Onion Architecture was introduced by Jeffrey Palermo to provide a better way to build applications in perspective of better testability, maintainability, and dependability on the infrastructures like databases and services
Onion, Clean or Hexagonal architecture: it's all the same. Which is built on Domain-Driven Desgin approach.
Domain in center and building layer top of it. You can call it as Domain-centric Architecture too.

we can see that all the Layers are dependent only on the Core Layers
Domain layer
Domain Layers (Core layer) is implemented in center and never depends on any other layer. Therefore, what we do is that we create interfaces to Persistence layer and these interfaces get implemented in the external layers. This is also known and DIP or Dependency Inversion Principle
Persistence layer
In Persistence layer where we implement reposistory design pattern. In our project, we have implement Entityframework which already implements a repository design pattern. DbContext will be UoW (Unit of Work) and each DbSet is the repository. This interacts with our database using dataproviders
Service layer
Service layer (or also called as Application layer) where we can implement business logic. For OLAP/OLTP process, we can implement CQRS design pattern. In our project, we have implemented CQRS design pattern on top of Mediator design pattern via MediatR libraries
In case you want to implement email feature logic, we define an IMailService in the Service Layer. Using DIP, it is easily possible to switch the implementations. This helps build scalable applications.
Infrastructure Layer
In this layer, we add our third party libraries like JWT Tokens Authentication or Serilog for logging, etc. so that all the third libraries will be in one place. In our project, we have implemented almost all important libraries, you can plug & play (add/remove) based on your project requirement in StartUp.cs file.
Presentation Layer
This can be WebApi or UI.
