I have been constantly asking me this question. My answer always changed over time: I told them that this is a new platform, and later tell them a new strategy of Microsoft, but now I miss me. Will answer this way: .NET is a concept, is a idea, or a dream of Microsoft?
For Microsoft .NET, Microsoft has the following description:
".NET is Microsoft to create an XML web service (next-generation software) platform, which links information, equipment, and people in a unified, personalized way."
"With the help of the .NET platform, you can create and use XML-based applications, processes, and web sites, and services, they can share and combine and combine information and functions on any platform or smart device, to unit and individuals. Provide custom solutions. "
".NET is a comprehensive product family that is built on the industry standard and Internet standard, providing development (tools), management (server), use (construction block service and smart client), and XML Web service experience (rich User experience) .. NET will be part of the Microsoft Application, Tools, and Server you are using today, and new products continue to extend the service capabilities of XML Web to meet all your business needs. "
This US time has caused the new concept of the world in the morning of June 22, 2000, it caused the attention of the global IT world, because the Microsoft company released its Microsoft is famous for changing the industry's game rules, the company's other famous place is proficient. "Bringing theism", good at inheriting the idea of others, and turns into their own products. In the new product of .NET, VS.NET has a Delphi shadow, C # is more like Java's clone, or even the "network calculation" of .NET has also been raised by Sun very early. But this does not hinder .NET has become the most popular technical vocabulary last year, with the release of VS.NET and Windows.net, it will also become one of the topics of people talking about this year.
After publishing .NET, Gates said that the network will be turned from a presented platform to a complete platform.
At Microsoft's WinXP, I noticed a sentence that the host specifically emphasized: In the future, we can use any devices to get information at any time, any place and on annvice.). But this is certainly not .NET, just like Gates, only the information can be obtained, and the user will also obtain data encapsulated by the program, that is, the service. About this, I have the following imagination: there is .NET, the world's Internet will form a huge service center, and your terminal equipment (of course, not just your desktop, including mobile phone, PDA, tablet PC, etc., even household appliances, before, any device) is your personal intelligence secretary. You don't need to get information on your information, just ask your request (part of natural language technology is also part of .NET) to the Secretary, she will automatically go to the Internet to find related services, after their intelligence processing Integration, complete the task you handed over with the most efficient way. The possibility of this new computing model is prominent in this imaginary case:
Steve Masters hurts by a bicycle by a bicycle postman because of the business trip to San Francisco. Steve contacts his web phone with Jamie far in his hometown, she is the receptionist in his office office. Jamie not only knows the position of Steve, but also visits some of the clinic clinics close to Steve, which can provide the services included in his health insurance. She gave a doctor at a clinic of Steve at a street. Steve has been ongoing after getting the required medical care. Many people are rejoicing for this prospect, in fact, this is only a small part of the .NET experience. .NET provides developers with a new development platform (.NET framework), new development language (C #), new development tool (Visual Studio .NET), new development mode; provided for ordinary users Windows CE, Windows XP, Stinger, Xbox, Tablet PC, .NET MY Services, MSN, etc. provide Bcentral for companies. In the future, most popular Microsoft software applications - including Office and Visual Studio .NET - will begin interact with the XML web service, and disclose their main functions as XML web services so that other developers can utilize .
Now, you have seen it, Microsoft .NET is a platform, which is Microsoft's XML Web service platform. XML Web Services allows applications to communicate and share data over the Internet, regardless of which operating system, device, or programming language used. The Microsoft .NET platform provides you want to create XML Web Services and integrate these services together. This platform contains a wide range of product products, which are all based on XML and Internet industry standards, providing every aspect from development, management, and experiencing XML web services. Now, Microsoft is created in five aspects, namely tools, servers, XML web services, clients, and .NET experiences.
Microsoft .NET is a web strategy of Microsoft, which is the most powerful weapon in which Microsoft intends to fully occupy the Internet. On the robbery of the global Internet market, Microsoft seems to be slow and half shot. At the browser, it is almost in the netscape hand, and also eats the boss's lawsuit, and it is reached in the streaming media. As the Internet swept around the world with an unprecedented speed, many people want this opportunity to reshuffle, but how can Microsoft that are used to develop the rules of the game rules will easily take the initiative to hand in the hands of others. At the same time, due to the continuous growth of open source organizations, Microsoft hits the source code to convene more and more people's dissatisfaction. Many people have done on the Linux camp for different considerations (safe, open, free). In addition, Microsoft is waiting for the court on the split judgment. If Microsoft is split, Microsoft's product will be difficult to achieve the current market absolute monopoly, for Microsoft, must change in the product, and this change, this change It is the transition from a software company to a service company by .NET. In fact, Microsoft may become a world's largest network service provider (ASP). Windows This era is ended in Microsoft, and the era of the ten-year window is over. Microsoft intends to fully design our future, it will rewrite all its products to the form of .NET constructed, with ASP (Application Service Provider), this is no longer mainly to make money from authorization and sales software discs, but to make money through a large number of software services running on the Internet, from software suppliers to ASP - this is Microsoft's new strategy . In fact, some people have already raised, the software industry that makes a huge contribution to computer development and popularity has reached such a turning point: the software left in the terminal will be less and less, and the way to release through the package is about to disappear. Change to the form of online rental, users can use it online as long as they issued a request locally, and the supplier of this software will charge according to the number of times you use. Now you understand why Microsoft must have to fight for the old. Once this envisage becomes a realistic, the browser integrated with many features will replace the status of the current operating system and become the only software on the terminal. If this browser is not a Microsoft product, then the consequences can be imagined.
.NET or a Dream of Microsoft, is the next generation of Internet ideals proposed by Microsoft. In this conception, calculate the new world that exceeds web browsing, enters a more advanced Internet platform and extremely rich software services. There is a dream in Microsoft's heart, it is necessary to change people's future lifestyle through .NET. Just like the emergence of Windows causes the computer from the elite toys into the indispensable tools around the general public, .NET is very likely to make the Internet become inseparable from people in people's life. In the future I era, people's life, work, study, and entertainment will get .NET help. At that time, .NET may not be mentioned again, but it brings the products and concepts, but it will always be around us.
