The .NET architecture can help businesses better leverage the software assets they already have, while enabling them to rapidly add and use new software services. It can also be employed to reduce application complexity and the related costs of developing and maintaining software.
Microsoft Visual Studio.NET
Microsoft Visual Studio .NET will enable you to enhance productivity, agility, scalability, and profitability. Built to take advantage of the .NET Framework, Visual Studio offers the a great programming environment for delivering your applications and services. The business benefits of using Visual Studio .NET as your development environment include:
Boosting productivity while protecting existing skill and technology investments.
Giving your business the agility to react to changing market demands with speed and precision.
Expanding your business capabilities and opening up new avenues of opportunity.
Visual Studio .NET is as flexible as you need it to be, giving you the power to rapidly design, build, and deploy Web solutions, Microsoft Windows-based applications, and XML Web services.
Boosting Productivity and Protecting Existing Investments
With features that include a single integrated development environment (IDE); new object-oriented features; a new programming language, C#; and development life-cycle tools, Visual Studio .NET offers end-to-end Web development capabilities, freeing developers to focus on creating solutions rather than on navigating a convoluted development environment. Creating applications with Visual Studio .NET is faster, saving time and increasing productivity.
Visual Studio .NET provides support for working in multiple programming languages and creating applications that are platform and device-independent, so developers can carry forward their existing skills and avoid costly and time-consuming retraining. It also means your existing investments are protected. Legacy applications and code can be re-used, so you can extend your capabilities without having to toss away valuable assets.
Making You More Agile
The power unleashed by XML Web services represents an evolution in the use of the Internet. Developers can now create new customer and partner business opportunities on the Web. Not only can you more easily integrate internal applications, but you can also easily access services exposed by other businesses. Visual Studio .NET includes the programming tools Partners need to take advantage of new customer opportunities dramatically increasing not only your productivity, but also your ability to react quickly and precisely to changing business demands.
Expanding Your Reach
The language and platform independence of Visual Studio .NET extends to deploying your applications and services, as well. Visual Studio .NET automatically creates the necessary XML and SOAP interfaces needed to turn an application into a XML Web service. It also includes a setup tool specifically designed for distributing all tiers of a distributed application.
By combining XML Web services exposed on the Internet, your company can create a wide variety of value-added applications. As the integration of XML Web services increases, the Web is poised to become the essential fabric that ties together all computing devices. Providing rapid design, development, and deployment support for XML Web services, high-performance data-driven solutions, and server-side visual designers, Visual Studio .NET delivers superior functionality for streamlining business processes and enabling new business opportunities.
The MVC Programming Model
MVC is one of three ASP.NET programming models.
MVC is a framework for building web applications using a MVC (Model View Controller) design:
- The Model represents the application core (for instance a list of database records).
- The View displays the data (the database records).
- The Controller handles the input (to the database records).
The MVC model also provides full control over HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.

The MVC model defines web applications with 3 logic layers:
The business layer (Model logic)
The display layer (View logic)
The input control (Controller logic) |
The Model is the part of the application that handles the logic for the application data.
Often model objects retrieve data (and store data) from a database.
The View is the parts of the application that handles the display of the data.
Most often the views are created from the model data.
The Controller is the part of the application that handles user interaction.
Typically controllers read data from a view, control user input, and send input data to the model.
The MVC separation helps you manage complex applications, because you can focus on one aspect a time. For example, you can focus on the view without depending on the business logic. It also makes it easier to test an application.
The MVC separation also simplifies group development. Different developers can work on the view, the controller logic, and the business logic in parallel.
