6. The.NET Evolution Before COM, CORBA, etc applications were completely separate entities with little or no integration Applicatio n Code and data structures

7. The.NET Evolution COM provides a way for components to integrate. However, each component must provide the “plumbing” and objects cannot directly interact.

8. The.NET Evolution With the.NET Framework common language runtime, components are built on a common substrate. No “plumbing” is needed; objects can directly interact

9. Microsoft.NET Move towards a service oriented business model Move towards a service oriented business model Provides a platform and tools for service providers Provides a platform and tools for service providers Integrate and connect many different kinds of devices over Internet Integrate and connect many different kinds of devices over Internet
