Optimized ASP.NET Hosting & .NET Core Platform

Windows 2022 and Windows 2019 hosting are web hosting services that utilize Microsoft's server operating system, specifically Windows Server 2022 or Windows Server 2019. This type of hosting is ideal for websites that require a Windows-based environment for their applications, such as ASP.NET, .NET Core, or MSSQL databases. With Windows hosting, the hosting provider takes care of the server hardware and software, allowing the user to focus on creating and managing their website content and functionality.

Whether you're looking to build a website for your business or run a complex web application, Windows hosting offers a reliable and powerful solution. By choosing a Windows hosting provider, you can ensure that your website or application is running on a secure and up-to-date server platform, backed by expert support and maintenance.

When it comes to building robust applications and database-driven websites with less code, ASP.NET and .NET Core are go-to frameworks. And, for these frameworks, Windows Servers are the perfect match. ASP.NET simplifies common website tasks, freeing you up to focus on creating the best possible visitor experience.

If you're evaluating ASP.NET providers, it's important to consider the added benefits in addition to a 99.9% uptime guarantee. Our Windows hosting plans include 24/7 monitoring and DDoS security to keep your website safe from potential security threats. Additionally, we offer easy 1-click setup for domains registered with Adaptive, making it easier for you to get started with your website.

With our ASP.NET hosting plans, you can be confident that you're getting a powerful and reliable solution for your website or application needs.

Certain hosting applications and features are only available on specific types of hosting. For example, some widely used hosting applications only run on Linux servers, while the Visual Basic or .NET programming languages are exclusively available on Windows. Therefore, if you need to use ASP.NET, .NET Core, and/or SQL databases, a Microsoft Windows hosting plan is the best option. However, if you prefer Linux hosting, we also offer the .NET Core Toolkit on our Linux Hosting Plans, which has become an increasingly popular choice among users.

ASP.NET is a powerful server-side framework that allows programmers to build dynamic websites, services, and applications. These pages, also known as Web Forms, are just one way to build web applications using ASP.NET. Another popular approach is ASP.NET MVC, which follows a different architectural pattern known as Model-View-Controller (MVC). This approach separates an application into three distinct components: the model, view, and controller, making it easier to develop, test, and maintain complex applications.

.NET Core is a lightweight, high-speed platform that enables developers to build modern web services and applications. It was developed in response to the evolving workloads found with ASP.NET core and the need for a more modernized runtime. .NET Core is the open-source version of the .NET platform, and it includes many of the same APIs found with the .NET framework. Additionally, .NET Core is cross-platform, which means that applications developed using it can be run on Linux, macOS, and Windows. This makes it an excellent choice for developers who want to create flexible and portable applications that can be run on multiple platforms.

Microsoft Active Server Pages (ASP), also known as Classic ASP or ASP 3.0, is a server-side scripting environment that was popular in the past. While it's an older technology, it's still supported on the Adaptive ASP.NET Hosting platform. Customers who require access to ASP functionality can easily request it through a support ticket, and we're happy to provide the necessary support to ensure that their ASP-based applications continue to run smoothly.

At our company, we offer support for multiple versions of .NET Core, including 7.0, 6.0, 5.x, 3.x, and 2.x. These versions are supported in both framework-dependent deployment (FDD) and self-contained deployment (SCD) modes. This ensures that developers can choose the deployment mode that works best for their application, whether that's relying on the installed framework or bundling it with the application itself.

In the event that a specific .NET Core version is not listed, we still offer support through self-contained deployment until the framework is installed. We strive to provide our customers with the flexibility and support they need to develop and deploy their applications with confidence, regardless of the specific .NET Core version they choose.

We offer support for most versions of Visual Studio and Visual Web Developer, although some older versions may present issues. It's important to ensure that your development environment is compatible with the .NET Core version you are using.

For instance, .NET Core 7.0 and 6.0 require Visual Studio 2022. By ensuring that your development environment and .NET Core version are compatible, you can avoid potential issues and ensure that your development and deployment processes run smoothly.

We recommend staying up-to-date with the latest versions of both Visual Studio and .NET Core to take advantage of the latest features and ensure optimal performance.

At our company, we support both Blazor WebAssembly (WASM) and Blazor Server Model on our ASP.NET/.NET Core hosting plans. Blazor WebAssembly is an ideal solution for creating standalone web applications that don't require a backend ASP.NET Core app to serve their files. On the other hand, hosted Blazor WebAssembly apps are designed for deployment with a backend app to serve their files.

Whether you're developing a standalone or hosted Blazor WebAssembly app, we can help you with all aspects of the deployment process. Our hosting plans are optimized to ensure that your applications run smoothly and securely, and we offer expert support to help you troubleshoot any issues that may arise.
