How to Begin Web Hosting Using ASP.NET 3.5 ?

With our own hosting control panel, you can switch the version easily and instantly without bringing your entire site down. It is fully automated and switching the version is just with one click.

Microsoft ASP.NET is today the most powerful and fastest growing platform for Web development. It powers some of world's largest Web sites and most demanding applications. Part of the Microsoft .NET platform, ASP.NET provides component-based, extensible, and easy-to-use tools to build, deploy, and run Web applications that can target any browser and any mobile device. Introduced more than two years ago, it has since been adopted by thousands of developers along the way. Now it is ready for its first major upgrade-ASP.NET 3.5

ASP.NET 3.5 is 100-percent backwards compatible with the current version of ASP.NET and will provide a smooth migration experience when it is released. Backwards compatibility surely means that all ASP.NET 1.x and 2.0 code you may have will work as expected in ASP.NET 3.5. However, a simple version switch doesn't guarantee that you will make the most out of this framework. Taking advantage of the new features of ASP.NET 3.5 ensures more compact code, a richer set of services and capabilities, a more effective and appealing user interface, a more elegant and easy-to-maintain application architecture, and a powerful set of administration tools.

ASP.NET 3.5 Hosting Core Features

• AJAX

  AJAX is now built into the platform and makes the complicated task of building cross-platform, standards based AJAX applications to be easy.

• New ListView and DataPager Controls

  The new ListView control gives you unprecedented flexibility in how you display your data, by allowing you to have complete control over the HTML markup generated. ListView's template approach to representing data is designed to easily work with CSS styles, which comes in handy with the new Visual Studio 2008 designer view. In addition, you can use the DataPager control to handle all the work of allowing your users to page through large numbers of records.

• LINQ and other .NET Framework 3.5 Improvements

  .NET 3.5 includes Language Integrated Query (LINQ). LINQ makes your relational data queries a first-class language construct in C# and Visual Basic, complete with compiler and Intellisense support. For Web applications, the ASP.NET LinqDataSource control allows you to easily use LINQ to filter, order and group data that can then be bound to any of the data visualization controls. In addition, all the other improvements to .NET Framework 3.5, including the new HashSet collection, DateTime offset support, diagnostics, garbage collection, better thread lock support, and more.

• WCF Support for RSS, JSON, POX and Partial Trust

  With .NET 3.5, Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) now supports building Web services that can be exposed using any number of the Internet standard protocols, such as SOAP, RSS, JSON, POX and more. WCF makes it easy to create your endpoints, and now, supports building Web services in partial-trust situations like a typical shared-hosting environment.

• Visual Studio 2008 Support

  Full support in Visual Studio 2008 for Windows Communications Foundation, and Windows Presentation Foundation, and including the new workflow-enabled services technology.
