Microsoft .NET
The requirements of programming and technology were constantly
evolving and there was a need for a development platform that was
unrestricting and accessible. In a rather successful attempt to
address the problems faced by developers to overcome installation,
integration, and legacy issues, Microsoft created its .NET
(pronounced dot-net) platform.
The .NET Framework is a common environment for building, deploying,
and running Web Services and Web Applications. It is a software
framework for Microsoft Windows operating systems that includes a
large library and supports several programming languages which allows
language interoperability. This .Net library is available to all the
programming languages that .NET supports.
The .NET technology provides a new approach to software
development. This is the first development platform designed from the
ground up with the Internet in mind.
Features of .Net
Microsoft .Net offers a number of features that will make it your
first choice:
- Interoperability: The .Net framework provides means to
access functionality that is implemented in programs that execute
outside the .NET environment.
- Language Independence: The .Net framework supports the
exchange of types and object instances between libraries and
applications written using any conforming .NET language. It does so
through the Common Type System (CTS) that defines all possible data
types and programming constructs.
- Common Language Runtime Engine: All .NET programs execute
under the supervision of the Common Runtime Language (CLR),
guaranteeing certain effective memory management, security, and
exception handling.
- Security: The .Net framework provides a common security
platform for all applications. It protects the applications from the
exploitations by malicious software programs.
- Simplified Deployment: The design features and tools
offered by the .Net framework help in managing the installation of
computer software to ensure that it does not interfere with
previously installed software, and that it conforms to security
requirements.
- Base Class Library: The .Net framework offers a Base Class
Library (BCL) as part of Framework Class Library (FCL) which
includes features such as file reading, graphic rendering, and
database interaction and so on.
- Portability: Any program written using the .Net framework
can run on any type of system without any changes. The .Net
framework allows for cross-platform implementations for other
operating systems.
Advantages of .Net
The .NET Framework is a Microsoft Windows component that is
available to Windows users through various distribution channels.
.Net provides a number of benefits to the developers.
- The .Net framework makes it easy to install any commercial
applications from Microsoft and other third-party companies.
- The .Net framework automatically updates itself by the Microsoft
Update service.
- The .Net framework allows you to apply common skills across a
variety of devices, application types, and programming tasks
- The .Net framework easily integrates with other tools and
technologies to build the right solution with less work
- The .Net development frameworks and technologies are reusable and
customizable for larger programming tasks.
- The .Net framework ensures easier web settings, web
configurations, and deployment of applications.
