ASP.NET is a programming framework from Microsoft
for developing next generation web Applications.It is a framework built on the Common
Language Runtime and introduces a new paradigm to server-side
Web development.
There are several advantages that ASP.NET offers, such
as:
Performance. The code written in ASP.NET is compiled,
so straight ahead it is a performance boost. The code written in .Net
Framework is complied in Common Language Runtime. ASP.NET can take advantage
of early binding, just-in-time compilation, automatic resource optimization, runtime profiling, automatic memory management, enhanced exception handling, and caching services, right out-of-the-box,
this improves the performance before you start coding. A problem with
Web sites performance is with data-access.
For example, a database table will spend the majority of its execution
time connecting to the database and querying the information.
ASP.NET comes with a data-caching module. This data-caching module allows
you to specify what data on an ASP page to cache and on what conditions
to empty the cache and re-query the data-store.
ASP.NET ships with Performance Counters which system administrators can
use to gather application metrics. They can be used to measure the performance
of either a single instance of an ASP.NET application or all ASP.NET applications
combined on a computer.
Tool
Support. Now you can drag-and-drop web controls like
you do VB controls, double-click and write the server code for the control. ASP .NET supports XCOPY deployment that requires no registration or stopping
of the server, supports dynamic DLL updates and extensible configuration
using XML files.
Flexibility. Because ASP.NET is based on the
Common Language Runtime, the power and flexibility of that entire platform
is made available to web application developers. The Common Language Runtime's
Base Class libraries, Messaging, and Data Access solutions are all seamlessly
accessible from the web.
ASP.NET is also language-independent, so you can choose a language that
best applies to your application, or partition your application across
many languages. Further, Common Language Runtime interoperability guarantees
that your existing investment in COM-based development is preserved when
migrating to ASP.NET.
Simplicity. ASP.NET makes it easy to perform
common tasks, from simple form submission and client authentication to
deployment and site configuration. For example, the ASP.NET Page Framework
allows you to build user interfaces that cleanly separate application
logic from presentation code, and handle events in a simple, VB-like forms
processing model. Additionally, the Common Language Runtime simplifies
development with managed code services like automatic reference counting
and garbage collection.
Manageability The ASP.NET configuration system handles both
ends, and provides a hierarchical configuration set-up that enables extensible
configuration data to be defined and used throughout an application, a
Web site, and/or an entire domain. No server restart is required, even to deploy or replace running
compiled code!
Scalability. ASP.NET has been designed with scalability
in mind, enables automatic process recovery through error and memory
overload detection. Session state can now be maintained in a number of
ways. Session data can be passed in a hidden field within the pages, or
in one of two out-of-process State Stores. The two flavors they come in
are the ASP.NET State Store, which maintains stateful data in memory,
or the SQL State Store, for writing stateful data to your SQL Server database.
Customizability and Extensibility.
ASP.NET delivers a well-factored architecture that allows developers to
"plug-in" their code at the appropriate level. In fact, it is
possible to extend or replace any sub-component of the ASP.NET runtime
with your own custom-written component. Implementing custom authentication
or state services has never been easier.
Security ASP.NET works in conjunction with the Microsoft
.NET Framework and Internet Information Server (IIS) 5.0 to provide outstanding
security capabilities.
Language Support
ASP.NET
currently offers built-in support for three languages, C# (pronounced
"C Sharp"), Visual Basic, and JScript.
ASP.NET is different from ASP in two major
ways:
ASP.NET offers several programmatic enhancements over ASP,
such as, Compiled ASP.NET Scripts, Caching: Post-Back Forms: Server Controls,
and Deployment.
ASP.NET
offers a change in programming fundamentals. ASP followed procedural pattern
of creating pages.(e.g.; lets take a form which takes user information
and then authenticates the user. Here we would generally create a form,
which receives the user information in the first page, and then in the
second page we would process the user collection for authentication in
ASP.)
Writing ASP.NET pages
is an entirely different experience, ASP.NET still requires this round
trip to collect user input, but the developer does not need to concern
himself with these pesky details. ASP.NET pages are created much more
like VB apps. The above two pages can be clubbed together in one single
page.
Database processing to check for the user
Authentication.Text = "Welcome," & Name.Text & "you are a valid user"
End Sub
