The big players of Web Development .NET and Java
ASP.net and Java have been the most successful languages in the 4th generation languages that have evolved over the years. Programmers have the edge of developing programs that much faster than any language. There are several advantages that both languages hold together to give them an edge over their predecessors. A new, uniform and comprehensive API for every aspect of web, client and n-tier programming has made these languages top the charts even today. The deployment of 3rd party supplies of tools and components for superior visual programming development is another reason to cheer about by programmers about these languages. Web programs can be easily delivered with Java and ASP.NET with speed and precision.
Servlets can be developed with both Java and ASP.NET thus giving an edge to dynamic webpage creation. All latest programming needs can be easily met with the help of both these web and program development tools. Both these languages can be used as standalone applications or can be bolted with other larger components in the big picture wherever required.
.NET has the unique quality of language independence and language interoperability. A .NET component can be written partially in VB.NET and C# whichever pleases to the programmer. The larger application can also be mix of languages that will give a combined effect to the whole program or application.
A problem that glares at the faces of programmers in the face of programmers regarding .NET is the maintainability. As many languages maybe used to develop a single application it can become a spaghetti of codes thus making maintenance a highly costly job as experts from on various languages will be required.
.NET is the best bet in terms of security when it comes to web services, as Java doesn’t even provide a solution in terms of web services. Although security and remoting in .NET is not up to par as per the industry standards. In terms of verification, both ASP.NET and Java do a good job, although .NET does provide more checks and an easier environment to use.
Though many experts feel that every assembly should be signed with a different strong name but to make things easier one should use the same assembly name for assemblies from the same company or from the same product. If one is constantly updating assemblies then the different names will surely form a security exception after the upgrade.
