Hi Shamil: Inline: -----Original Message----- From: accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of Salakhetdinov Shamil Sent: Thursday, March 21, 2013 2:00 PM To: Access Developers discussion and problem solving Subject: [AccessD] OT: C#/ASP.NET - Was - Re[2]: Math equations Hi Jim -- I have changed the subject of this posting to not mix with JC's original one. >>> Good idea. 1. ASP.NET is hosted on so many ISP sites worldwide and the hosting prices are comparable with non-Windows hostings so C# is a real general purpose language for 10+ years now. >>> I like being able to host and develop my own sites then deploy them. I do not want to have hunt for Windows Server sites...85 percent of the market is Linux or Unix so pickings can be lean and the costs more. 2. I'd expect Windows Azure will be one of the main competitors on "cloud" market for many years to come. >>> Does Windows Azure support ASP.Net (with C#) websites? What are their rates? 3. I have heard Nginx is great but I'd expect MS will (soon) make IIS comparable with it (in min. memory footprint, (unlimited) multi-threading for certain apps, scalability etc.) - e.g. in VS2012 you can run IIS instance even within console application. >>> Nginx is a very different web server. It does not use multi-threading in the same way...it is event driven. Before Nginx, 3 years ago the IIS webserver was number two and now it is number three. (This product blows the door of both IIS and Apache in performance and scalability) Thank you. -- Shamil and Jim Четверг, 21 марта 2013, 12:15 -07:00 от "Jim Lawrence" <accessd at shaw.ca>: >Hi Shamil: > >That is why I placed that little "note" after the graph.
