What is ASP.net |
|
ASP.net is more than the next version of Active Server
Pages (ASP); it is a unified Web development platform that provides the
services necessary for developers to build enterprise-class Web applications.
While ASP.net is largely syntax compatible with ASP, it also provides a new
programming model and infrastructure that enables a powerful new class of
applications. You can feel free to augment your existing ASP applications by
incrementally adding ASP.net functionality to them.
ASP.net is a compiled .net-based environment; you can
author applications in any .net compatible language, including Visual Basic,
C# and Jscript.net. Additionally, the entire .net Framework platform is
available to any ASP.net application. Developers can easily access the
benefits of these technologies, which include a managed Common Language
Runtime environment, type safety, inheritance, and so on.
ASP.net has been designed to work seamlessly with
WYSIWYG HTML editors and other programming tools, including Microsoft Visual
Studio.net. Not only does this make Web development easier, but it also
provides all the benefits that these tools have to offer, including a GUI that
developers can use to drop server controls onto a Web page, as well as fully
integrated debugging support.
ASP.net combines unprecedented developer productivity with
performance, reliability, and deployment.

There are numerous benefits to working with
an ASP: |
Better Performance
- Takes advantage of early binding, just-in-time
compilation, native optimization, and caching
services because it is compiled common language
runtime code running on the server.
Better Security
- ASP.net applications can be secured a variety
of ways and employed using simple text
configuration files. Passwords can be stored as
either MD5 or SHA1 Hash values.
Better Caching
- Now you have more options in controlling how
you cache your pages including caching a portion
of the page as well as supporting file and cache
key dependencies.
Web Server, HTML, and
Validation Controls - These controls
allow common tasks like displaying and editing
data, form validation, date displays, etc. much
easier to implement for the developer.
ADO.net -
Many improvements over ADO including faster
access to SQL Server, better OLEDB support,
works with other data exactly the same way
including XML, Files, Streams, etc.
Custom Controls and
Code Behind Pages - developers can
create compiled custom controls and business
objects much easier. So deployment is faster,
design and logic are easier to separate, and
source code can be protected. With the .net
Framework SDK, everything you need to create and
compile objects is free.
Improved Scalability
- ASP.net was built with Web Farms in
mind so now Session and Application objects can
exist, and also supports Web Gardens.
Robust Environment
- ASP.net isolates bad code in a separate thread
and destroys all the code which is creating the
error. If there is a memory leak ASP.net can
create a new instance of itself and clear the
previous instance so no rebooting needs to be
done.
Better Debugging
- ASP.net has improved debugging, profiling, and
millisecond timing.
Decrease Development
Time - With all of ASP.net's built in
classes and controls, development time can
greatly be reduced, resulting in faster, better
application, that can come to market quicker.
