There are many controversies as regards the difference between Dot Net and Java. Today there are basically two internationally renown environments for developing applications. They are called Java Platform and.NET platform..NET and Java are actually incomparable guided by the fact that Java is a programming language where as.NET is a framework of presently 43 programming languages. (Microsoft latest news.Net support around 40 languages). If you devote a considerable amount of time exploring the environments then you might find out that.NET is far more efficient, perfect and better than many other. “Dot.Net vs. Java”

Java is generally used cross platform because of Java Virtual Machine (JVM). JVM helps in the translation of the code to bytecodes and then complies it to machine code according to the operating system. In the same way,.Net has developed Common Language Runtime (CLR) engine that converts the program code from Microsoft Intermediate Language (MSIL) to the native machine code. It has built in data types known as Common Type System (CTS) that mechanically understands the types of other languages and Language specification Rules (CLS) to be followed by the different languages so they can easily be converted into a common intermediate code before changing to machine code. “Java vs.Net”

Therefore, when dot. Net supports numerous programming Language, Java alternatively, we can say that it is focused on only one programming language that supports multiple environments. Some of the differences between java and dot. Net are given in next ……. “Java vs.Net”

Comparison: i.Java and dot. Net Both are object oriented programming language but Java is a platform independent language while dot. Net is platform dependent. [GI] ii.Java support one language on the other hand dot.NET support multiple languages such as VB.NET, C#.NET, J#.NET etc). iii.Java is sun Microsystems Product whereas dot. Net is Microsoft Product. “Java vs.Net”

IV.Dot. net provide more user friendliness when designing the forms for example in dot.Net we drag and drop controls into form which is not at all mind teasing process. Developer can concentrate on the programming logic or other development issues. Where as in java code for creating a simple control like button also takes some programming from the developer. V.Java supports connected architecture and dot.Net supports disconnected Architecture. [GI] “Java vs.Net”

vi.According to Sun, Java is renowned as “Write once, Run anywhere”. But its not completely true to say “Write once run anywhere” but to assure its multiple support much time needed to debug it on all platforms. So it’s not “Write once run anywhere” but its “Write once, and Debug everywhere”. Note: One important aspect is that most of the applications written today focus on one platform only whereas according to Microsoft, Dot.NET is renowned as “Learn once, Work anywhere”. (language) vii.Dot.Net due to disconnected data access through Ado dot.net has high level of performance against Java JDBC. [GI] “Java vs.Net”

Conclusion: Dot. Net and Java are said to be the two extensively used development environment to construct web applications. It is very hard to predict as to who will appear the winner, but the clear sign is there that the large enterprises who have been using Java for a prolonged period of time or the enterprises who use different platforms, will certainly continue their relationship with Java. As far as Dot. Net is related, the enterprises who have Windows platform and who is seeking faster development (along with the latest technology updates from Microsoft) time will go for Dot. Net. “Java vs.Net”

PHP vs.

“PHP vs.Net” PHP Hypertext Preprocessor. It is a recursive acronym; the first "P" stands for "PHP," and the first "P" of that stands for "PHP" as well, thus the cycle continues. It originally stood for “Personal Home Page”, but was renamed when the language starts use on the web. PHP Hypertext Preprocessor is a language used to create dynamic Web pages. With syntax from C, Java and Perl. PHP code is embedded within HTML pages for server side execution. As like many other web applications PHP is also commonly used to extract data out of a database and present it on the Web page. PHP is widely used with the mySQL database at backend.

“PHP vs.Net” Whenever there is a need for inter-linking huge databases to generate database driven websites, web programmers or web developers unanimously agree on using Java programming, ASP.Net programming or PHP programming. ASP (Active-server-pages) and Java are considered as the two most popular and standard web programming languages, now to some extent PHP(Hyper text preprocessor) too because of their unique advantages over other web programming languages.

“PHP vs.Net” Some of the differences between PHP and ASP. Net are elaborated in detail below: 1.Database Compatibility. 2.General Run Time. 3.Coding Simplicity. 4.Cost. 5.Platform Connectivity Issue. 6.Cost of Tools. 7.Background Language Support. 8.Security. 9.Serious, Complex and Large Applications. 10.Product. 11.Support.

“PHP vs.Net” 1.Database Compatibility The default database for PHP is MySql which is open source and allows to be downloaded free of cost from the internet whereas Dot.net by default uses Microsoft Sql which is far from being free. But the positive side is that both PHP and Dot.net are able to modify their database connectivity and work on each others databases as well as use MS Access, Oracle etc.

“PHP vs.Net” 2.General Run Time Compared to PHP, Dot.net loads faster as it is optimized and compiled language whereas PHP is an interpreted language which runs from the code directly thus, consuming more uploading time as interpreted languages needs to be converted to machine instructions at runtime. 3.Coding Simplicity ASP. Net codes are somewhat complicated and a web developer needs to work hard to get it when compared with PHP. But PHP codes are very simple and a programmer does not have to make much effort because it is comparatively easier than other types of programming languages.

“PHP vs.Net” 4.Cost of Operating System Linux can be used for running PHP programs and Linux is free operating system. Therefore, the cost of developing a website in PHP language is remarkably low. On the other hand, you need to install Internet Information Server (IIS) on a Windows server platform if you want to run ASP. Net program. As Windows server platform is not a free product, thus the cost of asp.net application is higher than PHP application.

“PHP vs.Net” 5.Multi-Platform Connectivity Issue ASP codes are usually run on Windows platforms (default) (but if you install ASP-Apache in the server than it can run on Linux platform as well). PHP has a unique advantage in this issue. Its codes can be linked with different types of platforms such as Windows, Linux and UNIX. So, Unlike Dot.net that runs exclusively on Windows server, PHP runs on multiple platforms such as Linux, UNIX, Windows, and Apache.

“PHP vs.Net” 6.Cost of Tools PHP codes are available for free in various forums and sites as it is a open source software. Furthermore, some useful tools that can be used in PHP are also available for free e.g. Joomla, WordPress, Magento. However, no such free tools are available for ASP.Net e.g. Visual Studio. 7. Security Though PHP can offer enough measures for ensuring data security, ASP. Net is reputed for creating sophisticated techniques to ensure the safety of confidential data. This is the reason why government and larger data- oriented organizations opt for ASP.Net.

“PHP vs.Net” 8. Background Language Support The codes that are used in PHP are very much similar to that of C++ language and its syntax resembles the syntax used in C and C++. Therefore, if you have a fair knowledge in C++ or C, you will have any difficulty while coding PHP language. However, Dot.net supports more languages like vb.net, cSharp (c#), C++, jSharp (j#) if compared to PHP which supports only C++ in which it is made. Therefore, if you have a fair knowledge in any dot. Net Supported language, you will not face any difficulty while coding in.net environment.

“PHP vs.Net” 9.Serious, Complex and Large Applications PHP is a language. ASP.NET is a framework. PHP is very good at creating web pages that needs limited functionality. Basic static pages with some small dynamic content. But once you need beyond that, then you start looking for code "pieces" to use. A grid, A menu. Database access libraries, Runtime Engines and Other libraries. When you are done, you've basically hacked together your own custom PHP framework.

“PHP vs.Net” (continue…) Serious, Complex and Large Applications ASP.NET has all that in place, and quite honestly much much more. The larger the project, the better ASP.NET does. Although it got more overhead (complexity) in terms of learning and coding when compared it with PHP, but as the project complexity increases, ASP.NET code complexity is fairly linear. PHP code becomes exponentially more complex and time consuming.

“PHP vs.Net” 10. Product Dot.net is a Microsoft product whereas PHP can be downloaded free from the internet, it’s owned by none hence open source. PHP modules and plug-ins can be downloaded totally free whereas Dot.net requires a series of Microsoft products such as Windows operating system, visual studio (and sql server at backend) for coding making it really expensive if compared with PHP.

“PHP vs.Net” 11. Support. Microsoft constantly updates the Dot.net with multiple features making it quite attractive development kit. Microsoft is a great asset to possess, if you are a developer for its numerous updates and features coupled with Microsoft’s extensive support, for creating dynamic web and desktop application. Whereas, PHP is not backed by any huge corporate entity like Microsoft, in spite of this; it is liked by the developers as it is the most inexpensive option to develop a site. All its updates and supports can be downloaded free from the net that are developed by users themselves. Surprising enough, that this hasn’t affected its popularity negatively.

“PHP vs.Net” Conclusion: Unlike ASP. Net and JAVA, PHP doesn’t have any specified framework to build a website application. PHP based web applications can be developed with any IDE on any platform with any local host installed. This means that unlike.net framework for asp applications and JVM for java based applications PHP doesn’t force any strict or specified framework or environment and this is one of the best benefits of PHP. PHP is very good for small quick development But where the matter is of branded, complex and secure application dot.net will certainly wins.

.NET platform.NET applications are built by developing in any of the.NET languages such as C#, VB, or C++, which is then compiled into the CIL (Common intermediate language) byte- code. Next, the CIL is converted into machine language which can then be executed on any Windows machine that is Window’s Plateform. General Information

Java platform Java applications are built by developing in Java only, which is then compiled into Java byte-code. The intermediate byte-code is then converted to machine code using the JVM (Java Virtual Machine). Unlike the.NET platform, however, the machine code created by the JVM can run on any platform, including Windows, Linux, Unix, Solaris, or Mac OS. General Information

Connected Data Access: connected data access means that a connection must be open/ maintained between application and database while accessing data. Example: when read data from a database by using a sqlDataReader object, an open connection must be maintained between application and the database. General Information

Disconnected Data Access: When use dataAdapter, DataTable and DataSet objects, you don't need to keep connection open with the database. These objects are working in disconnected environment. That is connection with database is opened only for a period of time and is closed when the work/action is completed. General Information
