What is ASP.NET? -Top 9 Advantages of ASP.NET

When choosing a programming framework to build our own website, the most important things which you should keep in mind are the benefits the framework brings in terms of security and scalability, the support it offers and the reliability it offers in terms of its community of developers. And ASP.NET framework incorporates of these and has a keen eye for precise performance. It is known as Active server pages which is the advanced version of ASP. This framework is responsible for web application development supporting inheritance, polymorphism and other standard OOP features. With the help of this open-source framework, developers build robust applications using DLL class libraries and other latest features of the web server.

Hence it does not come as a surprise that ASP.NET powers thousands of applications which are used world-wide. Be it a small business website or be it a mammoth backbone application for any large enterprise being used across geographies and accessed over distributed device network, ASP.NET powers them all. Since it provides all the features you could possibly require, you could build dynamic web applications which are easy to envision, create and maintain.

Let us look at the top 9 advantages which make ASP.NET the most sought after technology amongst programmers and why customers want .NET application development done.

Greater Speed: ASP.Net can build websites quicker by making use of richer controls which can create calendars, wizards, grids on the fly.

Higher Scalability: ASP.Net has some great scalability features built into it, including maintaining session state across servers and multi-processor load balancing, thus building interactive and scalable products.

Code Less: It is complemented by a rich toolbox and designer in the Visual Studio integrated development environment. It has some easy ways of deploying applications like WYSIWYG editing, drag-and-drop server controls. This powerful tool provides automatic deployment by making use of its advanced features. ASP.NET uses the multi-language abilities of the .NET Common Language Runtime, allowing Web pages to be coded in VB.NET, C#, J#, Delphi.NET, Chrome, etc.

Efficiency of web server: The web server continuously monitors the pages, components and applications running on it. If it notices any memory leaks, infinite loops, other illegal activities, it immediately destroys those activities and restarts itself.

User Authentication: ASP.Net supports forms-based user authentication, including cookie management and automatic redirection of unauthorized logins. ASP.Net allows for user accounts and roles thus providing a high degree of granularity for controlling access to objects and pages.

Object and Page Caching: ASP.Net objects and pages can be cached to dramatically increase performance. The caching system is very advanced, allowing you to specify what needs to be cached and what doesn’t and when to recall the cached information rather than perform a new request. Thus making it easier for the programmers.

Open Source: Its vision is to create a best practice architectural framework, leveraging the ASP.NET MVC framework with NHibernate and whole other Open Source libraries. All processes are carefully controlled and managed by ASP.NET, so that if the process is dead, the new process can be created in its place, which helps to keep your application constantly available to handle requests.

Enhanced Reliability: ASP.NET automatically detects and recovers from errors such as dead locks and memory leaks to ensure that your application is always available. For example, when a memory leak is detected, ASP.NET automatically starts up a new copy of the ASP.NET worker process and directs all new requests to the new process. Memory Leak, Dead Lock and Crash Protection are all controlled by this platform.

Security: The data-validation and authentication is well executed under ASP .NET framework. Using .NET inheritance, base classes can be developed which can serve the authentication purpose before displaying the information to a user. One can customize the page information regarding what the current user is entitled to view. If any page’s displayable data is not secure, that information can be secured by content encoding in ASP .NET framework. ASP .NET does a better performance by early binding and compilation, native optimization and catching facility which decrease security risks.

All smartphone apps and modern web apps are built in ASP.Net as it has many interesting application features, functionalities which are easier to use. It has gained a steady market due to its mass acceptance among corporate houses for providing reliable, customized solutions with custom web application development. Upgrading to ASP .NET will help us build richer and interactive applications. Therefore in the coming years it will give us more secure and versatile online applications dominating the web in a smarter way and helping our business to grow.
