ASP.NET
ASP.NET is the latest web development language from Microsoft. It run on the
Microsoft .NET frameworks and hence benefits from all the advantages that the
framework provides.
The .NET framework contains over 2,500 pre developed and
tested classes that a developer can use in an ASP.NET web application.
A developer will usually use Visual Studio to develop an
ASP.NET site which greatly aids design and debugging of the application.
ASP.NET pages are developed using a true programming language
either VB or C# not a scripting language as in traditional ASP. ASP.NET pages
separate the presentation (HTML) and programming code (vb, c#) using code
behind, this lead to a cleaner and hence more reliable application.
These pages are the compiled on the IIS server when the page
is first requested this lead to a vast improvement in performance and
scalability of your application.
The html produced by a ASP.NET application is browser
independent, this eliminates the need for a developer to code for differences
in browsers. ASP.NET takes care of detecting the type of browser and browser
compatibility issues when it generates code for a server control.
ASP.NET applications are very simple to config using the
built in support for XML configuration file like web.config and machine.config.
Changes to these files are dynamic ie you do not need to stop and restart your
web server for changes to take effect.
ASP.NET supports a Varity of caching method that a developer
can employ with very little effort, this leads to your site been faster and
scalable. .
