Why Many Developers Hate ASP.NET and Why They’re Wrong (net.tutsplus.com)

submitted by pwhe23pwhe23(845) 2 months, 2 days ago

Few platforms draw the same amount of ire as ASP.NET (or .NET in general) from the development community. While there are certainly valid criticisms of the platform (what platform doesn't?), the majority of negativity comes from those who haven't spent any time with .NET. Those developers typically rely on misconceptions or flat out hatred to base their opinion, and they do a disservice to others looking to learn a new technology and to the platform itself. So, let's examine these excuses and add a dose of reality on why you shouldn't listen to the rabble and give ASP.NET a try. read more...

A Hidden Performance Bottleneck - Discover and Resolve(blog.sqlauthority.com)

submitted by pinaldavepinaldave(9662) 10 months, 20 days ago

I have been working a lot on Wait Stats and Wait Types recently. Last Year, I requested blog readers to send me their respective server’s wait stats. I recorded the wait stats and my recommendations and did further research. At some point at time, there were more than 10 different round trips of the recommendations and suggestions. Finally, after six month of working my hands on performance tuning, I have collected some real world wisdom because of this. Now I plan to share my findings with all of you over here. read more...

5 Ways That Postsharp Can SOLIDify Your Code: Caching(www.sharpcrafters.com)

submitted by mgrovesmgroves(260) 11 months, 24 days ago

Sometimes there's just no way to speed up an operation. Maybe it's dependent on a service that's on some external web server, or maybe it's a very processor intensive operation, or maybe it's fast by itself, but a bunch of concurrent requests would suck up all your resources. There are lots of reasons to use caching. PostSharp itself doesn't provide a caching framework for you (again, PostSharp isn't reinventing the wheel, it's just making it easier to use), but it does provide you with a way to (surprise) reduce boilerplate code, stop repeating yourself, and separate concerns into their own classes. read more...

Essential guide to ASP.NET MVC3 performance(leoncullens.nl)

submitted by AvalaxyAvalaxy(145) 1 month, 5 days ago

The .NET CLR can give your web application a significant performance boost compared to other platforms such as PHP due to it's compiled nature. Not only does your .NET code perform better because it's more low-level, it also comes with good support for parallel programming.

Code First? What about Code Second?(drc.ideablade.com)

submitted by bsenoffbsenoff(1282) 2 months, 23 days ago

What if your application must work with an existing database, perhaps with 300 tables or more? While you may want to write and maintain your entity model in Code First style, you're not looking forward to writing 300 entity classes by hand. Fortunately, you don't have to. You can jump-start your code base by generating the initial classes from the database schema and then continue Code First from there. We call this approach "Code Second". read more...
